Corn prices (futures) can be followed at finviz.com. Graph line is almost straight up since end of May. Bought a few bags at Dick's in Dallas last week for $7.49. Noticed Cabela's at $9.99 yesterday for 40lb bag.

Ethanol is consuming about 40% of production, likely much higher this year considering lower yield due to severe drought. Don't much care for using good food(or moonshine feeder) for fuel except in emergency. Seems like such a waste.

Definitely the worst dought since 1988. I'm sure everyone is ready for this weather cycle to turn.

Say what you will...but it has worked well for me for years and at half the price....

If your feeding alot buy in bulk and you will save money. Either contracting out a few tons from a local feed store or pay a back haul fee for a load of uncleaned corn up north.

No bueno!!

GOD KNOWS THAT'S THE TRUTH!

Here in Minnesota the crop is good so far. Nationwide they are estimating lower yields resulting in price increases of up to 40%.

50lb triple clean corn.. 8.99 local

I run two feeders that utilize about 500 lbs of corn each per season. I know we are saving now just to fill feeders. Crazy prices. Saw $8.95/50 lb. at Buccees's.

no people in texas will adapt. for instance they might learn how to really hunt track deer. or they will go around bagging acorns.

I won't be buying much corn this year. They should atleast give you a kiss before.

it is 10.00 in my neck of the woods already!!!

Next trip to the lease another Elimintor plate will be installed. They pay for themselve quick, 2 feeders down, 1 to go but it will require a whole new feeder can't retrofit it.

Just loaded my truck with 1,500 lbs of corn to go fill feeders in the morning. $11.50 per 50lb sack, hear it's supposed to keep going up?

In-laws took grandma back this weekend through Missouri, Illinois and Indiana.....said they're plowing a lot of fields under. Get ready.

$9.75 at mummies yesterday

Missouri is hurting bad. Saying a lot around our place won't even harvest. It's gonna be uglier.

Not just corn oats are going up to I feed a about 10 sacks a week 10$ a sack that was on friday

As long as it stays between $0.20 - 0.25/lb we continue to feed

Futures contracts are at $.15 lb and headed higher. One estimate I saw predicted a peak of about $9.10 a bushel or about $.16 a pound. By the time all the overhead and markups are included I think that $.20 figure will be pushed real hard.

Expensive

$9.45/50lb bag today at north texas farmers coop in greenville. no good.

Just to let you know, it's high over here in La. too. The lowest around my area is 8.99 a 50# bag. This years corn crop in NE Louisiana is a good one, but the prices are still high. I'm just glad I don't rely on corn to hunt deer.

I hunt on 160 acres of weeds with a total of 2 mature trees. No corn=no deer which kinda sucks but I don't have to pay to hunt it and have taken 150 class deer off of it two years straight, so corn it is.

Nothing wrong with that. I'm not one of these hunters who think if you hunt over corn your not a real hunter.

Brace yourselves.....it's gonna get higher. Around my place in Iowa, crop is looking decent, however, that is not the norm, Southern Iowa farmers are already starting to chop. Framers will be getting record prices for their crops this year.
