Farmers are looking to take advantage of the rally in grain prices that has carried into 2021.
Jeff Pape, a corn and soybean grower from Dyersville in eastern Iowa, says he typically markets a year or two in advance.
“To try to take advantage of what I can, but the previous year there wasn’t enough out there to get me to market ahead like I’d normally do. So going into this year I started my typical marketing plan to get it moving a little bit.”
He tells Brownfield about 60 percent of his 2021 soybeans are already sold.
