Grains had a nice rally today following several key headlines. Weather outlooks in South America that lowered next week’s rainfall expectations. Coverage is only expected to be 50% as well. News that Russia claims it will cut oil production by 500,000 barrels per day was also supportive. Heightened fighting between Russia and Ukraine was also positive for futures, mainly wheat. The grain markets seemed to follow wheat higher right out of the 8:30 open. We have heard these stories many times this year, so I will waive the caution flag to be careful. We are approaching the upper level of the trading range, so it would not hurt to reward the market a little. If you don't want to sell here maybe put some orders in for Sunday night. 6.70 cash corn and 15.00 cash beans remain a good target. Have a good Super Bowl Weekend!!
