OSU's Kim Anderson Says Producers Should take Advantage of the Recent Price Rally
Oklahoma State University Extension Grains Market Analyst Dr. Kim Anderson talks about what is going on in the Wheat Markets weekly on SUNUP.

We've seen a couple of good weeks with crop prices.

Dr. Anderson says prices have been increasing, "You look at wheat prices on Kansas City December contract, they went from $4.26 cents to $4.80. Thats a 54 cent increase there. You Look down at corn, $3.21 cents on that December contract to $3.55, thats 34 cents for corn. Soybeans, $8.65 to $9.55, 90 cents cents, and cotton has been wallering around abut 65 to 66 cents, but that is still relatively good for cotton prices."
