Grain Corn Harvest Starting

Manitoba's grain corn harvest is underway.
 
Anne Kirk is a cereal crop specialist with Manitoba Agriculture.
 
"Harvest is just starting. I think in the central part of the province, harvest began this week or the end of last week. I think that frost that we got a few weeks ago, that was a pretty hard frost, kind of wide-spread throughout the province, that definitely helped dry things down."
 
Kirk says bushel weight might be a bit lighter in some areas due to that frost.
 
She expects limited amounts of drying this fall.

Video: Iran War = “Trend is Your Friend” Short-Term BUT……


Historically wars like the 2026 Iran war are bullish hard assets like grains, metals and energy! The funds are spooked and do not want to be short, but do they price in the news over time, similar to the Ukraine/Russian war that started on Feb. 24, 2022? A closure of the Strait of Hormuz is the key to the surge in crude oil, natural gas prices and fertilizer prices.  Grains are breaking out to new contract highs as a hedge against inflation.
