Iowa | Um no. I'm in the seed industry. Only dsm's I know of that are up on units of either corn or beans are the guys who have a niche that guys are trying due to economics. Non gmo corn is up due to being cheap, Non gmo soy is up -- IF you have a market nearby - premium $'s. Sales are slow due to economics - I've seen numerous facebook ads with 0% financing -- Its FEBRUARY - and theyre offering the same deal as in SEPTEMBER -- they are looking for business yet. The old trick is "we're selling out" get guys to commit. We had a similar deal "better grab it before its gone" -- well that was a month ago, and its still orderable today.
Now I'd say this: If you want stuff I'd get it on order soon, otherwise its gonna be hard to react to get it to your door by April. We're getting to the point where they may not make another "run" of a particular product, so if youre on the fence you need to at least talk with your suppliers and go over options. Also consider theres gonna be a lot of acres that change hands if guys dont come up with first rent payments - so getting it in your shed would be a good move - when those calls happen its usually "I picked up x acres, I want x on it, can I pick it up this week" - and your supplier will grab from somebody elses pile to fill his order, hoping to replace it before you show up. | |
