Wheat Prices Moving Higher Despite the Fact Good to Excellent Ratings Dominate Southern Plains Wheat

Kansas City wheat prices have quietly staged a rally in April- and most wheat producers have probably noticed. OSU Grain Marketing Economist Dr. Kim Anderson says that for the month of April, the price for KC Wheat, basis the July 2010 contract is 47 cents higher. Wheat is continue to look very good across much of Oklahoma- for example, here are some heads starting to appear in one of the fields at the OSU Lahoma test station yesterday, April 22, 2010.
Dr. Anderson says that producers might want to think about forward contracting some wheat if they are thinking of selling some at harvest- or he adds that "it won't hurt my feelings" if they wait til harvest to actually do the selling, as that is his favorite strategy for at least a part of your harvested bushels.
Dr. Anderson's comments are from his conversation with Clinton Griffiths of SUNUP- and you can see Kim with Clinton on SUNUP Saturday morning on OETA. But if you want the early scoop of what Kim is telling the SUNUP team- click on the Listen Bar below and you can hear his comments while you can take advantage of them as the market trades on Friday.
