Thoughts for 2011 and BeyondGeneral economic conditions
Continued economic recovery is a major key for crop pricesJapanese earthquake and tsunami have shaken those prospects
Supply/demand concerns92 million acres of corn and 78 million acres of soybeans?South America: La Niña impacts (Argentina , Brazil )Biofuels: E15; Ethanol & Biodiesel tax credits renewedWill supply be able to keep pace with demand?
2010/11: USDA: Corn $5.40, Soy $11.60Futures (as of 3/15/2011): Corn $5.19, Soy $11.39
2011/12:Futures (as of 3/15/2011): Corn $5.35, Soy $11.91
