Slower and slower...  

I can't quite put my finger on it, but it seems to take me longer to do less than say when I was 35 or so. Who knew?

Anyhoo, I'll finish the Cargill Propricing meetings* this week (until December), and we'll start corn right after Labor day. Meanwhile, I need to get the GSS heated, plumbed, and wired. The actual greenhouse is going up next weekend as a project for the whole family.

So posting may be shallow until post-harvest, so to speak.

Thanks for reading.

*At the risk of sounding like a Tool, check out the new ProMax contract. If I had to design a contract, it would look like this. Given my belief in continued strong demand and production issues, the Jul-Nov high-tick guarantee on 50% of the bushels looks like a solid.

John,

Decided to look at your weblog this am (after our East Coast hurricane)...and read the Promax contract. Do you have any recommended historical overview on the evolution of corn market?

Thanks,
