- Curt Kimmel, AgMarket.net- Middle East Ceasefire Fails to Ease Fertilizer Price Surge- farmdoc Webinar on Controlling Costs 11am Thursday- Chad Hart, Iowa State University- Mark Russo, EverStream.aiThis April 27, 2026, agricultural market report highlights upward price movements across corn, soybeans, and wheat futures. Market analyst Curt Kimmel attributes the soybean rally to the European Union rejecting Argentine soybean meal cargoes due to the presence of the drought-resistant HB4 gene, while corn prices were supported by dry conditions in Brazil. Domestically, ongoing conflict in the Middle East has kept nitrogen fertilizer prices high, adding an estimated $30 to $55 per acre to 2026 corn crop costs. Iowa State economist Chad Hart noted that commodity prices are currently benefiting from both war and weather premiums, pointing out the contrast between widespread U.S. drought and overly wet planting conditions in parts of Iowa and Illinois. Finally, meteorologist Mark Russo forecasted a normal, albeit slightly cooler, spring weather pattern for the U.S. Corn Belt, while noting continued dryness in the western Plains, snow-delayed planting in the Canadian prairies, and generally favorable late-season conditions for Brazil's safrinha corn crop. ★ Support this podcast ★

- Curt Kimmel, AgMarket.net- Use 10oz of Metribuzin on Waterhemp- FAPRI Cautions RVO Soybean Push- Mark Russo, EverStream.aiThe April 20, 2026, Closing Market Report covers several key agricultural updates, beginning with analyst Curt Kimmel noting fluctuating grain markets influenced by adverse weather in the wheat belt and ongoing spring planting progress. Ben Brown from the Food and Agricultural Policy Research Institute (FAPRI) discusses their 10-year agricultural outlook, highlighting a persistent financial gap between the crop and livestock sectors. He also warns that subtle biofuel policy details regarding international feedstocks could unexpectedly weaken domestic soybean oil demand before 2028. Meteorologist Mark Russo reports that recent cold snaps likely caused minimal widespread damage to winter wheat and forecasts a drier, warming trend favorable for Midwest planting, though he notes growing concerns over dry conditions for Brazil's safrinha corn crop. Finally, the broadcast briefly highlights research recommending a specific 10-ounce application rate of Metribuzin to control herbicide-resistant waterhemp. ★ Support this podcast ★

Panelists - Naomi Blohm, TotalFarmMarketing.com - Greg Johnson, TGM TotalGrainMarketing.com- Jim McCormick, AgMarket.netThe April 16 edition of Commodity Week, hosted by Todd Gleason, featured panelists Naomi Blohm, Greg Johnson, and Jim McCormick analyzing the current agricultural market landscape and the geopolitical factors influencing it. A primary focus was the potential shift in planting acres from corn to soybeans across the Midwest, driven by elevated input costs—specifically diesel and fertilizer—and compounded by heavy spring rainfall delaying field work. These fertilizer price spikes are being exacerbated by ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, which have trapped shipping vessels in the Persian Gulf and prompted countries like India to heavily subsidize and secure global fertilizer supplies. The panel also evaluated grain marketing strategies, with Greg Johnson noting farmers still may be holding roughly 30% to 35% of their old crop corn in anticipation of a price rally. However, the experts warned that unless significant weather issues or war-driven crude oil spikes emerge by mid-summer, old crop basis could crash as elevators reach capacity ahead of the fall harvest. Consequently, they urged producers to consider moving their remaining grain sooner rather than later to avoid logistical bottlenecks and dropping prices. ★ Support this podcast ★

- Matt Bennett, AgMarket.net- WILLAg News | SAF Market Development & Year-Round E15- Using Metribuzin to Manage Group 15 Resistant Waterhemp- Mike Tannura, Tstorm.netThe April 16, 2026, broadcast of the Closing Market Report covers updates on agricultural markets, biofuels, weed management, and national weather impacts. Market analyst Matt Bennett explains that corn and soybean markets are consolidating as wet and cold weather temporarily pauses planting across the Midwest, warning that high energy and fertilizer costs pose long-term profitability risks for growers. In policy news, industry leaders are advocating for federal support to expand the Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) market, while lawmakers simultaneously push for year-round E15 to combat inflation and assist farmers facing negative margins. On the agronomy front, weed scientist Aaron Hager advises that with waterhemp populations in Illinois showing resistance to group 15 herbicides, farmers should consider utilizing metribuzin, an older asymmetrical triazine that remains effective against the weed. Finally, meteorologist Mike Tannura details severe, ongoing drought conditions and an impending freeze threatening winter wheat in the western plains and southern United States, a situation that contrasts sharply with record wet conditions delaying fieldwork in northern states like Michigan. ★ Support this podcast ★

- Curt Kimmel, AgMarket.net- Risk Premium & N Supply Chain Issues- Mark Russo, EverStream.aiThe April 13, 2026, closing market report highlighted the impact of international geopolitical tensions on agricultural commodities. Analysts noted that recent blockades involving the United States and Iran injected volatility and risk premiums into the markets, initially pushing corn and wheat prices higher while temporarily weakening soybeans. Given these built-in risk premiums, market experts recommend that producers begin executing their old and new crop marketing strategies, aiming to price at least twenty percent of their grain to capitalize on the current environment.Domestic planting progress is advancing at a strong pace, particularly in the central and southern Midwest, with expectations of average or slightly above-average planting progress overall. However, the global conflict has raised significant long-term concerns regarding nitrogen and urea supply chains. While the vast majority of fertilizer for the current spring season was priced before the conflict escalated, analysts warn that sustained high fertilizer prices will likely limit fall applications and significantly impact acreage and crop rotation decisions for the 2027 growing season.Weather patterns continue to present varying challenges across key agricultural regions. The western hard red winter wheat belt continues to suffer from a lack of meaningful rainfall, pushing crop conditions closer to dire levels. In the broader Midwest, the southern belt is experiencing drier conditions conducive to rapid planting, while central and northern areas remain slightly wetter. Internationally, incoming rains in Argentina are expected to slow the corn and soybean harvests, whereas the Safrinha crop areas in southern Brazil are entering a drier pattern that will soon require moisture to maintain adequate soil conditions. ★ Support this podcast ★

- Matt Bennett, AgMarket.net- Resistant Waterhemp, maybe Metribuzin- Mike Tannura, Tstorm.netThe April 9, 2026 closing market report covers agricultural commodity markets, weed control strategies, and Midwestern weather forecasts. Analyst Matt Bennett characterized the day's USDA WASDE report as largely uneventful, noting ample global corn supplies and continuing competitive pressure from South American soybean exports. University of Illinois weed scientist Aaron Hager then detailed the increasing resistance of waterhemp to Group 15 and PPO-inhibiting herbicides across the state, advising producers to consider metribuzin as a viable and cost-effective alternative for residual control. Finally, meteorologist Mike Tannura highlighted severe drought conditions currently impacting over half of the U.S. hard red winter wheat crop. He forecast upcoming rain systems that will primarily benefit eastern, lower-elevation areas of the Plains while leaving western regions dry, alongside additional precipitation expected to move into the Corn Belt during the planting season. ★ Support this podcast ★

On today's show, as the markets seemingly wait for the next war or weather headline, we take a moment to break down some old and new crop charts for corn and soybeans. Are we setting up for a move in these markets anytime soon? Brian Splitt with AgMarket.net walks us through things and shares perspective on today's show. Find more at https://www.agmarket.net. In Segment Two of today's show, we learn about the Rezidue Reaper, a new corn head-mounted attachment distributed by Thunderstruck Ag, designed to address certain problems during harvest instead of after. Co-inventor Tanner Schoff joins us to tell us more.

- Curt Kimmel, AgMarket.net- Ed Usset, University of Minnesota- Mark Russo, EverStream.aiTrading on April 6, 2026, was quiet, reflecting slight price gains in corn and soybeans alongside a dip in wheat futures. Market analysts expect the upcoming USDA WASDE report to indicate tighter corn stocks driven by strong demand, offset by a potential slight increase in soybean carryout. Geopolitical tensions continue to support commodity prices through war premiums; however, analysts warn of significant downside risks once the crop is successfully planted.Elevated fertilizer costs, with anhydrous ammonia projected at $860 per ton for the 2027 crop, combined with record board soybean crush margins at $2.43 per bushel, strongly favor a continued shift toward soybean acreage. Despite expanding domestic crushing capacity and bullish price scenarios, weak cash basis levels act as a red flag regarding the longevity of current futures rallies. Agricultural economists advise producers to proactively hedge or secure forward contracts to lock in profitable new-crop prices—such as November soybeans at $11.50 to $11.60 and December corn near $4.80—warning that historical trends frequently show prices deteriorating before harvest.In the U.S. Corn Belt, widespread weekend rainfall successfully replenished soil moisture, creating favorable conditions and steady soil temperatures for the upcoming planting season. Conversely, prolonged dryness remains a major concern for the Hard Red Winter Wheat regions of the Plains, with upcoming forecasts offering only scattered and localized precipitation. In South America, an active late-season weather pattern is causing minor harvest delays for corn and soybeans across Brazil and Argentina. However, the added moisture is exceptionally beneficial for the critical growth stages of Brazil's safrinha, or second crop, corn. ★ Support this podcast ★
