Oklahoma State University Extension Grains Market Analyst Dr. Kim Anderson talks about what is going on in the Wheat Markets weekly on SUNUP. This week Dr. Anderson gives us an update on the latest prices, "Well let's look at corn and wheat, corn prices and wheat prices have both been off about 80 cents over the last week or so. You look at Parrington Texas corn prices are $7.45 a bushel, wheat is $6.60. In Medford corn is $6.70, and wheat is $6.40." Anderson said Corn prices are significantly higher than Wheat, " Wheat is being priced as a feed-grain rather than a food grain. Now soybean prices were down about 60 cents or so in the last week and a half, and Cotton prices are down around four or five cents." To hear more from Dr. Kim Anderson click or tap below.
