Corn planting in Minnesota and South Dakota is lagging well behind last year’s pace and the USDA five-year average. Based at Britton, South Dakota, DuWayne Bosse of Bolt Marketing says prevent plant is becoming more of a reality. “Planters are rolling now, and farmers will get in what they can, but anymore rain and there’s no doubt we’ll be higher on prevent plant acres.” The Trump Administration has said it will provide a $15 billion assistance package to U.S. farmers, which could provide some incentive for farmers to plant soybeans this year. Bosse says that trade aid does change the market. “That actually gets me more bearish to the soybean market. The November futures would definitely would create some profitable positions.”
