With harvest complete, farmers now have a clear understanding of the grain they have available for sale. 

While many have already sold their grain in forward market positions, others are considering deferring sales for several weeks or months.

James Nolan, a grain trader at Barnett-Hall, is on this week’s Tillage Edge to discuss the current market outlook and what farmers should expect as we move forwards.

James highlights the challenges of drought in Russia and Eastern Europe, as well as adverse weather conditions in South America. However, the underlying factor of abundant maize supplies is likely to keep pressure on the market.
