Episode 201: "Grain & Cattle Marketing Update - Fall 2023" w/David Derwin


In this week’s episode, Tracy speaks to David Derwin in our “Grain & Cattle Marketing Update: Fall 2023.”

It’s hard to know what to do when markets are continually changing. But as we all know, markets do just that; they always go up and down.

In today’s episode, David shares a few insights about what producers can do for their grain and cattle marketing in fall 2023.

  • David gives our audience a brief overview of current market conditions and prices.
  • Many producers are finding themselves with better-than-expected yields and have to sell for bin space or cash flow purposes. But many are not necessarily seeing the price they want. David shares his thoughts on this.
  • Prices have come down a lot for wheat, corn, and barley. Durum prices are strong, and oilseed prices are still decent. David speaks to the different marketing strategies for each commodity.
  • Tracy asks David about marketing and hedging strategies used so far this crop year.
  • They discuss high-interest rates and their impact on selling and storage decisions.
  • Given the high cattle prices, David discusses some hedging alternatives for beef producers.
Don’t miss this week’s episode, where we chat about all things grain and cattle marketing.
