A southwest Illinois farmer is optimistic towards corn and soybean prices in 2021 after reflecting on price jumps in 2020.

Daryl Cates tells Brownfield he sold a lot of corn last spring around $3 and soybeans around $9 anticipating those to be the cap.

“No one ever dreamt we would see the prices move like they did.”

On Tuesday, in the St. Louis area, beans were over $13 and corn was just over $5.
