Nothing Earth-shattering came out of today's WASDE report from USDA. Dustin Hoffmann visits with John Heinberg of Total Farm Marketing to see what sent corn higher and beans lower. 

Weather is still driving the markets. Rains in North Dakota pulled the wheat markets lower and, in turn, dragged the corn and soybeans along with it. Dustin Hoffmann catches up with Jim McCormick of AgMarket.Net. 

Weather is driving the markets back and forth, depending on the rain forecasts or lack thereof. Dustin Hoffmann talks with Bryan Doherty of Total Farm Marketing. 

Markets continue to climb on hot & dry weather in the corn belt and Northern Plains. Allendale's Greg McBride tells Dustin Hoffmann how farmers can take advantage of the prices, while they find themselves smack dab in the affected areas.

We are focused on the weather during this edition of Weekend Ag Matters:

• Brent talks with USDA meteorologist Brad Rippey

Dustin Hoffmann visits with Matt Bennett of AgMarket.Net. They talk about the ups and downs of the market lately, what farmers can do to capitalize on it, and how USDA reports are being viewed ahead of next week's WASDE. 

We are seeing some up and down price action at midday. Dustin Hoffmann talks with John Heinberg of Total Farm marketing to see what is happening, and how long it might last. 

Weather continues to drive this market in a volatile way. If it isn't dry & hot, it's last weekend's frost. Dustin Hoffmann talks with Jim McCormick of AgMarket.Net. 

Markets are double-digits higher again on frost news in the upper midwest. However, that fear is tempered by the days remaining on the calendar, and the assessments coming back from growers. Naomi Blohm of Total Farm Marketing tells us to "buckle up" as June will be a "wild ride." 

On this week's edition of Weekend Ag Matters:
