Market Commentary 4/21/2026

Row crop markets tracked higher today with corn up a penny and both beans and wheat up 8. Corn made some new recent highs at $4.5525. Hogs are higher and cattle are lower. Crude is trading higher with mixed uncertainty coming out of Iranian peace talks in Pakistan. Iowa planting progress was behind last year’s pace, but the US as a whole, is ahead of the 5-year average for planting and emergence. Weather outlook continues to have some spotty rains in the next week. 

Looking to market the crop you are putting in the ground? A One for One gives you a guaranteed premium on a futures only contract, with a contingent offer at the same futures level. These work great for bushels off the combine!

We can only take hopper bottom trailers for corn. Make sure hoppers are fully closed before driving off the dump.

Speed limit is 10mph
