Krone North America has announced their highest retail sales volume dealers for fiscal year 2016. Krone is a global leader in the manufacturing and sales of hay and forage equipment, doing business in 40 countries.

Those award-winning dealers are:

Earning a top 10 spot for dealer retail sales for Krone North America takes significant effort, as each year over 200 equipment dealers compete for this distinctive recognition. To be considered for this award, the dealership must have exceptional sales, service, and parts departments. Thus, this recognition confirms that employees at all 10 dealerships have exhibited tremendous commitment to serving the needs of their customers.

Each of these dealers carry the Krone North American product line. That full line of hay and forage equipment includes the BiG X Forage Harvesters, BiG M Mower Conditioners, BiG Pack Large Square Balers, Comprima Round Balers, KW Tedders, AM and EasyCut Disc Mowers, EasyCut Mower Conditions and Swadro Rakes.

Tommy Jones, President of Krone North America, had this to say, “We’re extremely proud of our Top 10 dealers, and their exceptional efforts to achieve this award. We are fortunate to be able to provide quality Krone equipment to our customers through these outstanding dealers.”

Video: Is China Buying US Soybeans + USDA Nov 14th Crop Report could be “Game Changing”

After a week of a U.S./China trade truce, markets/trade is skeptical that we have not seen a signed agreement nor heard much from China or seen any details. There are rumors that China is buying soybean futures & not the physical. Trust in Trump?
12 MMT of U.S. soybean purchases by China by year-end is better than 0 but we all need to give it more time and give it a chance to unfold. China did lower the tariffs on Ag and is buying U.S. wheat and sorghum.
U.S. supreme court could rule against Trumps tariffs, but the Trump administration does have a plan B.
U.S. government shutdown is now the longest in history at 38 days.
But despite a U.S. government shutdown we will be getting a USDA November crop report next Friday and it could be “game changing.” If the USDA provides a bullish surprise with lower U.S. corn and soybean yields and ending stocks that are lower than expected both corn and soybean futures will break out above their ceilings at $4.35/bu and $11.35/bu respectively.
The funds continued their selling in live and feeder cattle futures on continued fears that the Trump administration want to lower U.S. beef prices. The fundamentals have not changed, only market psychology has.
Stocks markets continue to worry about a weak U.S. job market, but you can blame ChatGPT for that. In the future, we will have a more efficient, productive and growing economy with a higher unemployment rate until we have more skilled AI workers.
After 34 new record highs in the S & P 500 and 124 new records in the NASDAQ in 2025 we are back to a correction and investor profit taking as AI valuations may have gotten too stretched near-term ahead of NVDA’s 3rd quarter earnings announcement on Nov. 19th. But this is not an AI bubble.
