DTN Top Stories
Long rain delays in corn planting has farmers doing the math on their
options: take a prevented planting payment from crop insurance, plant corn but
with lower insurance coverage levels or switch to soybeans. USDA's redesigned
Market Facilitation Program is just one more factor they'll need to consider
this spring.
See DTN Ag News. 4^Perplexing Planting Decisions...
Under the guise of providing aid to farmers, USDA is requiring
farmers to produce more for unspecified amounts. Is that good public policy?
See DTN Ag News. BTodd's Take...
In response to the new Market Facilitation Program rolled out
Thursday, farm groups offered praise to the Trump administration for helping
offset export losses, but reiterated that a second consecutive year of trade
aid is insufficient to make up for potentially years of lost trade revenue.

The cool, wet spring has afforded ample moisture to most areas of the
Midwest, which should be good news when the weather finally warms up, but which
has also slowed growth of many forages, potentially affecting yields.

Reps. Collin Peterson, D-Minn., and Dusty Johnson, R-S.D., introduced
legislation that would set a June 1 deadline for small-refinery waiver
applications, as well as make information public about the companies seeking
waivers.

Grain Policy
GFE has changed its basis contracts. All basis contracts have until first notice day of the underlying futures to be priced. This means you can lock in the basis, haul your corn, and have sometime to set futures on that grain. You can only receive payment on fully priced bushels. Bushels must be priced and sold in 5,000 bushel increments. Call Will with any questions!
Spot bushels will be accepted as long as we are posting a cash bid for the current month.
Spot bushels and overrun will always be priced at the day's close. Producers do have the option to price bushels as they come across the scale, but must notify Will at that time.
To sell corn to Granite Falls Energy call (320) 564-3100 and ask for Will.
