Market Talk

On today's special episode; our host Jesse Allen has a market recap with analysis and numbers to wrap the week. Then, we talk with Allison Rivera of NCBA about policy issues they are focusing on right now in Washington D.C. before we wrap with Jason Steffl of Brevant Seeds. We talk to him about current conditions in the Northwestern Corn Belt.

Jesse Allen is on the road today so we bring in John Heinberg from Total Farm Marketing on the phone this afternoon. We recap the bullish surprises in the August WASDE numbers and the weaker close we saw across grains (especially corn and soybeans off session highs).

The August USDA WASDE report has brought some bullish surprises to the trade. Arlan Suderman of StoneX joins us to breakdown the numbers and provide reaction in our Midday Commentary.

Grains were fairly quiet on Wednesday ahead of the August WASDE Report from USDA on Thursday. Plenty of storylines to watch from the demand side, yield and much more. Also, what are we hearing from cattlemen at NCBA? Mike Zuzolo from Global Commodity Analytics joins us to unpack all that and more! Learn more at www.globalcommresearch.com!
