Positive sign for wheat ..

[Kinger]

If you look at a historical 20 year futures chart you can see that "normally" is the case.

Or if you want to try something else.

Do a fixed basis and roll the futures too May or July

Do a call for May or July 2018 futures.

Do an averaging contract for a few months off May/July futures.

Lots of other options than locking the bins. Some even let you haul now and stay in the market.

Does it look like the year to hold everything? Not sure on peas with India still jacking around but wheat and canola appear poised to pay a decent storage premium. wheat with protein is scarce around here.

I don't really have too much faith in prices rising too much in the near future guys ! Why!!?? Cause the grain companies don't have to. They have a pretty steady stream of guys coming in this time of year pre-buying of fertilizer and chemicals and canola seed for 2018 and they know our breaking point. Also guys have land payments , machine payments , rent, all of it, whatever. So they have the upper hand ! Yields not so good this year, oh well then , you need to put down a little more fertilizer and we can sell you that!Whats that? You say you had a wildoat problem on some of your acres this year? Oh well we can sell you this new super duper advanced wildoat killer , and if you pay before December we will knock off 2%! Ya you get the picture! I said it before on Agriville and I'll say it again. The world is their oyster. It's their boat, it's their ocean. How long can you swim?

A long time if you know how , or if your willing to try lol

By the end of Oct I won't much more than seed wheat left in storage.

Low rider , if you let them they will . If we let Our PM **** the west ... he will , him and his finance buddy are trying every angle .
There were lots of tools and still are to get decent money for good wheat . Take a Kleenex, wipe your eyes , have a look 👀 and maybe think for yourself instead of crying over the useless CWB that is dead and will stay that way .

[furrowtickler]

A lot of wheat was priced at much higher prices and there are lots of options of cheaper herbicides than what they sell if you can quit complains and look around a bit . They will only have the upper hand if you let them , now different than any other business.

[furrowtickler]

It's no different than P&H and Cargil last May 28th saying buy next years fertilizer before June 1st it going up !! Well 5 days later it went down , if your dumb enough to fall for their b/S than I guess the world is their oyster.

FurrowTickler ! You are a laugh riot every minute I'm on this forum. If you think that you are ever going to get the "tools" as you call them , to get the upper hand or even catch up to Big Business, you are either too young or to naive yet to understand that big business Always comes out on top . Even with all the tricks and tools in your tool box you and I and everyone else on this forum are just pee ons to them and there is another new group of pee ons born every year !

And now that I've had a double whiskey and chilled a bit , I will tell you FurtowTickler , that I do respect your line of thinking ,,,,some of the time, just not on the topic of CWB. However, I will agree with you on the Trudeau thing . His dad was an A hole and so is he and so are all politicians! End of Story!
