Corn & Soybean Cam -- May 17th
I've selected a cornfield in Garfield Township, Sioux County, Iowa -- the far northwest corner of Iowa -- and I'll regularly stop to photograph and post so you can see the progress. There are no beans planted yet! (it's been a cool spring) --but once there are, I'll select a soybean field in the same vicinity.
Some local cash bids today . . . .
Rock Valley (Farmers Elevator) (May 2011): Corn $6.77 Soybean $12.92
Sioux Center (Farmers Coop) (May 31st delivery): Corn $6.90 Soybeans $13.10
It's a beautiful, sunny day -- predicted high 71 degrees!
