Fri, 25 Jun 2010 6:48:51 CDT
The economics of winter canola looks really good- so says Dr. Kim Anderson of OSU as he talked yesterday with Clinton Griffiths of OSU's weekly TV show, SUNUP. Anderson says the cost of growing a Canola crop is not a lot different from the input costs for wheat- and will yields 30 bushels or a little better, profit prospects for winter canola are really good when canola prices are at current levels.
Dr. Anderson also talked about the rising wheat market, saying much of the rally from the lows has been achieved, which suggests to him that you may want to be more aggresive in selling a portion of your harvest now rather than storing most of it into the fall.
