I love graphs, the really show in dramatic fashion what has been going on...

Of course the Commie News Network has to prominently display "drought" all over their story, as if it is all man's fault...

Not a word about ethanol insanity...

And all Obama and the Dem's have to say is "Repub's have no answer, so just grin and bear it". Or is it "Eat your peas, err...corn."?

Whats the word on peanuts? Has the drought affected that crop as well or is it still viable?

You know I have no idea on that, I recall something about a lousy harvest last year or the year before, but the Chi-Com's I think are the top producer, so one regions problems could benefit another. I'm not even sure where they are traded, nothing on FinViz for them, I guess I am peanut ignorant!

Some what good news as we consume quite a bit of peanut butter around here. I wasn't looking forward to paying yet another increase in price. It's hard now to see what is due to inflation(purposely destroying our fiat currency or shortage from crop failure.(I really hate those bastards). Thanks.

If you ask me, it's all a conspiracy to force Americans to become vegetarians. It makes sense from a liberal point of view.

They just want to take the hunter gene out of the hunter/gatherer equation and make men more like women...more of the war on men meme!

Livestock farmers (aka canaries in the coal mine) want a halt in ethanol production.

Good luck with that guys, really, best wishes.

(Lower prices for anything does not compute for Stymie & Co, sorry guys, your request will result in only BS or crickets...)

Reminds me of my kids coming home from school in third grade and informing me that peanut butter was in the "meat group" . It took a lot of explaining to get them to understand that daddy was right and their teacher and the Dept. of Health and Human Services was full of sh*t . I was also having a hard enough time correcting their Social Studies teacher and unteaching them bull-sh*t and teaching all the stuff she left out !

Not if I have anything to say about it, and I do, plenty.

Not as long as Gunsmith can grow 'maters and eggplant either.

Lady, are you a licensed agronomist?
Do you have a fertile seed permit?
Has the EPA approved your garden plan?
Do you have a permit for that eggplant?

I had one of those day-mares about such just yesterday. A man on my property said to other men on my property, "Take everything".

The USDA releases it August World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE) at 830ET - which is particularly important since it is the first survey-based estimates of the year.

I'll go out on a limb and say food inflation will increase.

"The U.S. drought means that global corn supplies will be critically tight
for the next year; Livestock and milk-product prices will have to rise to
cover the increased feed costs. Eventually, global consumers will have
to pay the bill."

Global consumers....that includes us...

Let us not forget the wasted energy spent on turning corn into fuel!
