Ag Market View for Jan 29
Soybeans, soymeal, corn and wheat traded higher. US stocks were lower. US Dollar was higher. Crude was lower. Gold was higher. Funds still covering shorts in silver.
Soybean traded in a wide range and closed higher. Soymeal gained on soyoil on the close. SH range was 13.35-13.76. 20 day moving average is near 13.67. Soybean found support due to talk of higher US soybean export demand. Resistance was from fact daily new sales were to China but new crop. Safras Mercado estimated Brail 2021 soybean crop near 133.1 mmt. This is up from previous est of 132.5. USDA is 133.0. They estimate acres up 3 pct to 38.6 million hectare or 95.4 million acres. USDA next supply and demand report will be Feb 9. In Jan, USDA estimated US soybean crush near 2,200 versus 2,165 last year and exports near 2,230 versus 1,682 last year. Soybean export commit is near 2,125 mil bu versus 1,161 last year. USDA estimates US carryout near 140 which some feel is minimum pipeline. Some could see China needing to switch 50-100 mil bu soybean from Brazil to US due to Brazil late harvest. A US carryout below 100 mil bu suggest soybean futures over 15.00.
Corn futures traded higher. CH made new highs. CH range was 5.33-5.53. News of new China buying US corn offered support. Continued increase fund buying and increase price volatility offers resistance. USDA announced 2,108 mt US corn sold to China. Some feel this brings China buying to near 6.0 mmt. Some feel they bought a total of 8.0 mmt US corn. Some feel China could import 30 mmt of corn, 5.0 from Ukraine, 3.0 from Brazil and 22.0 from US. USDA last guess was 17.5. This suggest in Feb USDA could increase global corn trade 10-12 mmt. In Jan, USDA estimated US corn feed and residual near 5,650 versus 5,903 last year, ethanol 4,950 versus 4,852 last year and exports near 2,550 versus 2,650 est in Dec and 1,778 last year. Corn export commit is near 1,916 mil bu versus 848 last year. USDA estimates US carryout near 1,552. Some could see final exports up 300 mil bu and domestic use up 200. This would suggest a carryout closer to 1,052. Price models suggest March corn futures near 6.00-6.25.
Wheat futures traded higher. Uncertainty over actual wheat exports from Russia, EU and Argentina. Offers support. Higher corn futures also offered support. Slow Global trade offers resistance. WH closed near 6.63. Range was 6.43-6.64. 20 day moving average is near 6.54. In Jan, USDA estimated US wheat feeding near 125 versus 101 last year, food use 965 versus 962 last year and exports near 985 versus 965 last year. Some feel drop in Russia, EU and Argentina wheat exports could shift some demand to US. Uncertain US 2021 weather could also lower US 2021/22 wheat carryout. Sovecon estimated Russia wheat exports at 37.9 mmt versus 36.3 previous. USDA is 39.0. Key to price direction in 2021 may depend upon US weather/yield and final demand. Weather watchers still trying to figure out 2021 north hemisphere weather. USDA annual Outlook conference is Feb 18-19. This will be their first look at US 2021/22 supply and demand.

Due to the unique partnership of CRU Events and AFAP this conference series is now well established as the premier meeting for linking senior executives from across the international fertilizer supply chain with key stake holders in African agribusiness. This year, the conference partners have decided to consolidate the West and East Africa Fertilizer Agribusiness events into one large conference with a comprehensive and interactive programme.
Africa’s future will depend on committed and innovative leadership that is prepared for regular and rigorous measures to drive the growth required for agricultural transformation.
AGRF 2018 has dedicated political and policy leadership from African governments. The event will showcase the leadership of 3 – 5 Heads of State and 15+ ministers. They will serve as champions for the rest of the continent with their insights on lessons learned and progress made in agricultural transformation efforts around Africa.

Today’s photos are from Nancy Hallberg in Waccabuc, New York. Nancy is Taunton’s marketing guru, and we’re so glad to have a serious gardener in her position! We last saw Nancy’s garden back in May of 2012 (refresh your memory HERE), when we oohed and aahed over her tree peonies. Today she’s back with her veggies!
She discussed her garden with our web producer, Antonio, so he gives us commentary today: Today, Taunton’s very own Nancy Hallberg shares her vegetable garden with you. Nancy and her husband Garth carved their growing spaces out of a steep and rocky slope in their backyard. After years of work, they’re enjoying a veggie-filled plateau all growing season long.
Nancy says, “All the raised beds are made of engineered plastic ‘wood’ which never decomposes (and is made of recycled material). The trellises are our own design, and can be moved from bed to bed quickly and easily – made inexpensively from netting and a couple of pieces of aluminum tubing, they’re now in their 4th season of service. The new asparagus bed is on the far right, just above the stone wall.”
Nancy and Garth also relish in outsmarting outdoor temperatures to make sure they get the crops they want. “Lettuce grows happily even when it starts to get hot in the shallow beds against the back wall. They don’t get the searing late summer sun because they’re shaded by Andromeda and the rising terrace behind them.”
The two also love their homegrown tomatoes, and so use tomato automators and Reemay to facilitate growth despite brisk temperatures in early spring. Great garden Nancy and Garth! I hope you have lots of veggie-loving friends to share your harvest with, because there’s bound to be a lot of it.
And thanks to you, Antonio, for guest-posting. Nancy–now that we’ve seen the framework in spring, send us photos of everything in full swing later in the summer, too!

that is THE coolest vegetable garden i have ever seen! almost with an "Incan" look :) i'm assuming those red discs around the tomatoes are the automators? i've never heard of those before. i'm envious of your set up there, i got my first cucumber of the season and bell peppers last night from my small and humble patch
Fabulous! A LOT of initial work... but WOW! What great results!Congratulations on a fine achievemnet!
"tomato automators and Reemay"...ha, it's like a secret language that only serious vegetable gardeners speak! But, thanks to a google search, I'm now clued in.
That's all very impressive planning and construction and the bountiful harvest will make true the words "you reap what you sow"!
Waccabuc, Nancy, what a fancy schmancy address: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waccabuc,_New_York
I love seeing people's veggie gardens, everyone has their own magic tricks. Those terraces work well on steep slopes, another technique that will add even more growing area to raised beds is "vertical" planting, many vegetables naturally vine; squash/legumes. One year I planted sugar snap peas so they'd vine on mammoth sunflowers, very sucessful... naturally the birds eventually made quick work of trash can lid sized sunflowers, blue jays are masterful at devouring sunflower seeds... sunflower seeds are safe from birds while growing, the flowers grow inverted with a natural fence of sepals making the seeds inaccessible to birds. Now I can hardly wait to see your crops in mid summer... thank you, Nancy.
I can't help but look at these pictures over and over again. The work, the design, the results.....all truly amazing.
I love the stone steps and path along the hillside! I think I'm going to have to borrow that idea for our new terrace. Thanks, Nancy.
I like how everying is done - especially like the blue "wood"
Nancy, what fantastic results! You have taken a challenging slope and made it so much more interesting and efficient than your basic flat piece of land. The blue"wood" is clever. I didn't want to use pressure treated wood with my own raised beds, for fear of it leaching into my veggies. We have a friend with his own saw mill and he made some timbers for us out of rot resistant locust. I would love to see some close ups of all the wonderful plants tucked in the surrounding hillside. That is a truly magical effect. I have seen the automators and Reemay, but never used them. Do they make a sizeable difference? Your veggie garden is definitely one of the coolest I have seen.
Hi Nancy, I haven't seen anyone using the plastic "wood" for veggie gardening until now. Great use of recycled materials and the perfect color for a garden! The first picture of the stone paths and terracing shows all your hard effort. I really like the plants spilling everywhere on the hillside. I may try the Remay for an earlier crop of tomatoes next year. Thank you for sharing.
Late to the party here, but love the hillside setting and stone work!
Thanks so much for the kind words! The garden is a continual work in progress, and we're always trying new things both in the veggie and ornamental parts. If you're interested in seeing a bit more of it over the last couple of seasons, I've been chronicling it in an occasional blog --
bloomsandlegumes.blogspot.com I don't post as often as I'd like (they keep me pretty busy here at Taunton Press!) but you can get a sense of how the stonework has evolved and they way we've integrated the flower, herb and ornamental plantings. Again, thanks for your comments, it's always so nice to share with folks who appreciate all that goes into this!

GRAINS-Corn, wheat futures ease on China worries, firm U.S. dollar
COVID-19 lockdowns in China hang over commodity markets
Dollar jump also curbs U.S. grain futures
Money managers slash long position in CBOT corn
(Adds start of U.S. trading, changes byline/dateline from PARIS/SINGAPORE)
By Tom Polansek
CHICAGO, Nov 21 (Reuters) - Chicago Board of Trade grain futures eased on Monday as a stronger dollar made U.S. commodities look less attractive to importers and traders worried that rising COVID-19 cases in China could dent its commodity demand.
The dollar advanced against most major currencies as China's fresh COVID-19 curbs fuelled worries over the global economic outlook. Beijing warned it was facing its most severe test of the COVID-19 pandemic.
"Corn futures gapped lower as exports continue to be a concern, elevated today by the dollar index gaining," CHS Hedging said in a note.
The most-active CBOT wheat contract was down 4 cents at $8.18 a bushel by 11:10 a.m. CST (1730 GMT), while corn fell 3-1/2 cents to $6.66-1/2 a bushel. Soybeans, meanwhile, were up 4-3/4 cents at $14.33 a bushel.
Crude oil and share prices also fell
"The increase is COVID-19 cases in China is seen as a bearish demand factor for food and energy consumption," market research firm Hightower said in a report.
The stronger dollar underscored a lack of competitiveness for U.S. wheat as Russian exports pick up and a 120-day extension to a grain shipping corridor from Ukraine is set to maintain flows from the war-torn country, analysts said.
Wheat prices in Russia, the world's biggest exporter of the grain, fell last week amid an extension of the Black Sea deal allowing Ukrainian grain shipments, analysts said.
In other news, traders said they were surprised by data issued on Friday that showed funds had reduced their long positions, or bets that prices would rise, in CBOT corn. The decline signals that the fund managers may see little reason to be long corn at this point, brokers said.
Data from the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission showed money managers through Nov. 15 slashed their net long in CBOT corn futures and options to their least bullish stance since mid-August.

Heat Resistant Lettuce Buying GuideDoes the thought of finding a great Heat Resistant Lettuce stress you out? Has your mind been juggling between choices when it comes to buying Heat Resistant Lettuce in general, specifically regarding which model to choose?If that’s the case, know that you’re not alone. Many people find it tough to buy the perfect Heat Resistant Lettuce for themselves. We understand the stress associated with the buying process!Since you’re here, you are obviously curious about Heat Resistant Lettuce Reviews. You’ve been bombarded with information, so you need to find a reputable source with credible options before you make any decisions on which product would be best for your needs.There are many sources that’ll provide you with that information- buying guides or ratings websites, word-of-mouth testimonials from friends or family members, online forums where users share their personal experiences, product reviews specifically found all over the internet and YouTube channels. Only thorough research will ensure that you get the right product.But that’s not always easy, right? That's why we've taken time to compile a list of the best Heat Resistant Lettuce in today's market, on your behalf, so that there will be no more worries for you.How did we come up with the list, you ask? How did we create this buying guide?
- First, our algorithms collected as much information available about these products from trusted sources.
- We employed both Artificial Intelligence and large data volume to validate all collected information.
- Then our AI ranked them on their quality-to-price ratio using industry-standard criteria that let us pick the best Heat Resistant Lettuce currently on the market!
- Brand Value: What happens when you go for a not-so-reputable brand just because the price seems cheap? Well, the chance of getting a short-lasting product goes higher. That’s because the renowned brands have a reputation to maintain, others don’t.
- Features: You don’t need heaps of features, but useful ones. We look at the features that matter and choose the top Heat Resistant Lettuce based on that.
- Specifications: Numbers always help you measure the quality of a product in a quantitative way. We try to find products of higher specifications, but with the right balance.
- Customer Ratings: The hundreds of customers using the Heat Resistant Lettuce before you won’t say wrong, would they? Better ratings mean better service experienced by a good number of people.
- Customer Reviews: Like ratings, customer reviews give you actual and trustworthy information, coming from real-world consumers about the Heat Resistant Lettuce they used.
- Seller Rank: Now, this is interesting! You don’t just need a good Heat Resistant Lettuce, you need a product that is trendy and growing in sales. It serves two objectives. Firstly, the growing number of users indicates the product is good. Secondly, the manufacturers will hopefully provide better quality and after-sales service because of that growing number.
- Value For The Money: They say you get what you pay for. Cheap isn’t always good. But that doesn’t mean splashing tons of money on a flashy but underserving product is good either. We try to measure how much value for the money you can get from your Heat Resistant Lettuce before putting them on the list.
- Durability: Durability and reliability go hand to hand. A robust and durable Heat Resistant Lettuce will serve you for months and years to come.
- Availability: Products come and go, new products take the place of the old ones. Probably some new features were added, some necessary modifications were done. What’s the point of using a supposedly good Heat Resistant Lettuce if that’s no longer continued by the manufacturer? We try to feature products that are up-to-date and sold by at least one reliable seller, if not several.
- Negative Ratings: Yes, we take that into consideration too! When we pick the top rated Heat Resistant Lettuce on the market, the products that got mostly negative ratings get filtered and discarded.

Here at Eat Like No One Else, we are all about eating seasonally. I encourage people to eat food when it's in season and eat it often. With modern transportation and refrigeration we can enjoy many things year round that we never would have before.
There are some things that I buy year round even if the area I live in can't currently grow them. Ideally I try to enjoy my peak season produce as much as possible. That is the case with asparagus.
Asparagus can be found year round but most of the year it is coming from Peru. This increased distance means increased prices and decreased flavor. The sugars in asparagus begins converting to starch as soon as it's cut. The sooner you eat it after harvest the better, which is why asparagus from Peru will never be as good as asparagus harvested closer by.
🏄 Mexico & California
During the late winter, asparagus begins showing up from Mexico and the prices tend to go down. This is specially true once the California asparagus hit the stores. At this point there is a lot of asparagus on the market, so it's when you will find the best deals.
RELATED - How to Tell if Asparagus is Bad?
⌚ When and How Long is Asparagus Season?
Here is a breakdown of the asparagus over the course of the year based on what I see in stores here in Michigan. I don't really consider it in season until California asparagus arrives. I am fortunate to live in a state that grows a lot of asparagus, so I get to enjoy quality, local asparagus in the spring time.
|Peru||June to February|
|Mexico||February to April|
|California||March to May|
|Michigan||May to June|
There are many states that grow asparagus that you can buy at your local farmer's market. Southern states like Texas have their asparagus ready in late winter/early spring, and further north in places like Montana, Vermont, the Dakotas will see their asparagus emerge in mid to late spring.
Here are some other harvest dates by state:
|Montana||mid May to June|
|Texas||March to April|
|Vermont||mid May to June|
|Washington||late April to June|
|Oregon||late April to June|
|New York||May to June|
|Illinois||late April to June|
|Florida||February to early April|
|New Jersey||May to June|
|Ohio||late april to early June|
By the time the heat of the summer comes, asparagus is done for the year and we go back to imported it from Peru.
📅 How Long Does It Last in Your State?
When your local asparagus season begins how long do you have? It all depends on the climate. Some areas might get 8-12 weeks worth, some more like 4-6 weeks. It depends on temperature extremes.
If you are in an area that heats up quickly, like in the Midwest than the season will be shorter than say in an area of California that maintains temperature for an extended period in the late winter to early spring.
The best answer you can get to this question is to ask a local asparagus farmer as it varies from year to year.
Here is a handy dandy visual guide to asparagus season.
If you like this graphic, make sure to check out all our seasonal posts for similar images for other fruits and veggies.
⚪ When is White Asparagus in Season?
White asparagus is just asparagus that has been deprived of light. It has no chlorophyll giving it a bitter taste. Nearly all white asparagus is imported from places like Peru. California no longer grows it commercially. It will be available sporadically throughout the year whenever imported prices are good.
🟣 When is Purple Asparagus in Season?
Purple asparagus is available around the same time as the standard U.S. grown green varieties. I don't find a lot of imported purple, more white is imported.
I have had several people coming to the site when searching for whether purple asparagus is a GMO (genetically modified organism). I think people are beginning to worry that if a vegetable is a different color than they are use to that it might be a GMO.
After doing a bit of searching around the web, I couldn't find much on asparagus being a GMO, so I believe it to be a low risk. Purple varieties of veggies have been around for a long time, they are just now becoming more popular.

Kershaw County Farmer's Market - Camden, SC
April 10, 2010
Last Saturday I visited our local Farmer's Market on opening day. The selections were great and I'm looking forward to a trip to the market each week. We bought cantaloupe, onions, squash, cucumbers and a loaf of wheat sourdough crusty bread. The cantaloupe was sweet and tasty. The onions were sharp and crisp as they should be and I've yet to cook or serve the other goodies. We will be cooking the squash and a few onions together soon. Everyone in the house loved the crusty bread!
This photo is from a two minute video of the market I took from across the road. I wanted to capture a first impression of the market but was so excited to see what they had to offer that I forgot to. This was taken just as we were leaving. I took stills from the video and created this one as a black and white with a light soft focus.

I love a Hornbeam hedge, and this one is a beautiful example in a stunning location.
You must remember that the Hornbeam is in fact a tree that can easily reach a height of 30 m, so if you intend to keep a hedge, rather than a forest, you need to keep on top of the pruning, and now is just the right time to do it.

- Monsanto (MON +1.6%) says it received import approval from China for its new genetically modified Roundup Ready 2 Xtend soybeans, and that it will begin selling the seeds in the U.S. and Canada.
- MON's next-generation soybean variety is engineered to tolerate applications of glyphosate and dicamba herbicides amid a growing problem of glyphosate-resistant weeds in North America.
- Dicamba use is allowed in Canada but not yet approved in the U.S., where it is still under review by the EPA.
Wed, Jan. 6, 2:19 PM
- Monsanto (MON -1.8%) CEO Hugh Grant says a deepening decline in the agricultural industry has strengthened the rationale for combining the company, the world’s largest seller of seeds, with Syngenta (SYT -2.2%), the top seller of pesticides, but engagement about a possible merger has been “difficult."
- In today's earnings conference call, Grant did not elaborate on the difficulty in engaging SYT, but said MON still sees a "significant opportunity" through integrating SYT's pesticide portfolio and that MON's pipeline of crop genes, high-performing seeds and new computer-powered farming services make the company a prime partner for merger deals.
- SYT CFO and interim CEO John Ramsay had said in an interview last month that the company was discussing possible deals with “a number of parties” and signaled new openness to discussing a deal with MON.
- Earlier: Monsanto to cut more jobs as Q4 sales slide, 2016 EPS outlook trimmed
Wed, Jan. 6, 9:11 AM
- Monsanto (NYSE:MON) -2.3% premarket after reporting better than expected Q1 earnings but disappointing revenues as corn sales weakened in Latin America.
- MON lowers its FY 2016 EPS guidance to the lower half of its prior guidance range of $5.10-$5.60, vs. $5.27 analyst consensus estimate, partly due to the recent devaluation of the Argentine peso.
- MON also raises the number of jobs it expects to cut as part of a restructuring plan to 3,600, or 16% of the global workforce, from 2,600 announced in October; the latest cuts will result in $1.1B-$1.2B in restructuring charges, more than previously expected charges of $850M-$900M.
- MON says Q4 soybean sales rose 11% Y/Y to $438M, as U.S. farmers have dedicated more fields to soybeans in pursuit of higher profits; sales in the ag productivity segment, which includes Roundup brand weed killer, fell to $820M from $1.25B a year earlier.

- Syngenta (SYT +4.1%) is in talks with Monsanto (MON +2.1%), ChemChina and others but has not received a concrete takeover offer and is keeping all options open, Chairman Michel Demare says.
- SYT's board, which this year rebuffed a takeover offer from MON, is considering making an acquisition, merging with a rival or selling the company, according to Demare.
- "Given what shareholders expect for the next 12 months, going it alone is hardly possible," Demare says, explaining that SYT could move ahead on its own but shareholders currently lack the patience to wait for a cyclical upswing; sector consolidation also is adding pressure to act, he says.

Dec. 18, 2015, 12:17 PM
- Interim Syngenta (SYT +2.1%) CEO John Ramsay tells Dow Jones the company is discussing possible deals with "a number of parties" and is open to combinations with companies including Monsanto (MON +0.9%).
- While Ramsay says MON has not revived its $46B takeover effort that was abandoned in August, his comment that SYT is "interested in any value-adding opportunity that exists for us in this industry, which includes Monsanto and many others" marks a notable departure from its earlier stand.
- Last week's merger between DuPont (DD -0.7%) and Dow Chemical (DOW -0.4%) removed two potential partners for SYT and eventually could pose a greater competitive threat in the ~$100B global seed and pesticide industry.
Dec. 9, 2015, 12:10 PM
- Any merger between Dow Chemical (DOW +10.5%) and DuPont (DD +12.6%) would have far-reaching consequences for European rivals, prompting a series of moves as pesticide and seed makers scramble to face a combined U.S. giant.
- A merger would make it more likely that Monsanto (MON +0.2%) re-approaches Syngenta (SYT +7.7%), Bernstein analysts say, speculating that a new bid could come in at 485 Swiss francs, more than the 470 cash-and-stock offer withdrawn in August.
- The pressure on MON to defend its position as the biggest seeds player would be "huge" as chemical companies will want to defend or even strengthen their market positions, says MM Warburg's Oliver Schwarz.
- Regulatory hurdles to a merger would require the combined company to sell off some businesses, likely sparking interest from contenders such as BASF (OTCQX:BASFY -0.1%), Schwarz says. “All the big companies that are swimming in this pond would probably be interested in taking over assets that Dow or DuPont would sell."
Nov. 18, 2015, 2:23 PM
- Syngenta (SYT -3.7%) and other major players in the seeds and crop chemicals industry are in active discussions about potential tie-ups, Financial Times cites Chairman Michel Demare as saying in an interview.
- Conversations among the leading companies in the sector were "extremely active... "We are all convinced that [the sector] will look quite different in six months," Demare says.
- The comments come after Monsanto (MON +1.4%), which withdrew a bid to take over SYT earlier this year, said yesterday it was discussing whether to acquire or merge with major rivals in the seed and agrochemical industries.
Nov. 17, 2015, 2:32 PM
- Monsanto (MON -0.8%) top execs are discussing whether it should try to acquire agrochemical rivals, including another potential run at Syngenta (SYT +6.8%), MON President Brett Begemann says.
- The internal discussions, ongoing since MON abandoned its $46B offer for SYT in August, include weighing the benefits of bidding for rivals such as Bayer CropScience (OTCPK:BAYRY +1.1%), Reuters reports.
- MON expects its profit growth will reach 20%/year, and says it does not need a big acquisition to achieve its previously reported goal of doubling earnings to more than $10/share by 2019, Begemann also says.

- Syngenta (SYT +6.4%) will continue to review its seed portfolio and look for deal opportunities but does not plan to engage Monsanto (MON +0.7%) on takeover talks, Chairman Michel Demaré tells Dow Jones in an interview following the sudden resignation of CEO Mike Mack.
- MON's proposal was financially risk and too low, Demaré says, and its rejection was "a unanimous decision" by SYT's board.
- SYT will be proactive in looking for openings to make its own acquisitions or seek to buy pieces spun off if rivals combine, Demaré says.
- Mack's exit did not arise from a difference over the company's strategy or its rejection of MON's takeover offer, the CEO adds.
Oct. 7, 2015, 9:17 AM
- Monsanto (NYSE:MON) -4.6% premarket after reporting FQ4 earnings and revenues that missed expectations, as corn seed sales continue to weaken.
- MON says it plans to cut 2,600 employees over the next two years, ~12% of its global workforce, with the aim of generating $275M-$300M in annual savings.
- MON also plans some restructuring actions costing an estimated $850M-$900M, and announces a new $3B stock buyback program.
- MON forecasts FY 2016 EPS of $5.10-$5.60 vs. $6.24 analyst consensus estimate; "it’s hard to see where growth will come from next year. The seed environment doesn’t seem entirely robust here or in South America,” says Monness Crespi analyst Chris Shaw.
- Says FY 2015 results reflected Y/Y ongoing EPS growth of 10%, or ~17% on an ongoing currency neutral basis, despite the downturn in the agriculture cycle.
- For FQ4, MON says corn sales, its biggest source of profit, fell 5.1% Y/Y to $598M, and soybean sales dropped 19% to $162M; sales in the agricultural productivity segment, which includes the Roundup brand weed killer, fell to $1.1B from $1.25B.
- FQ4 gross margin fell to 42% from 47%.

Aug. 26, 2015, 4:58 PM
- Monsanto (NYSE:MON) finished +8.5% today after dropping its bid for Syngenta, and Citigroup maintains its Buy rating on the stock as management "showed discipline" by ending the process.
- With the offer now off the table, MON said it plans to resume repurchasing its own shares, and Citi says the commitment to return capital to shareholders could alleviate fears that MON will quickly undertake another major transaction; MON has ~$4B remaining on its two-year, $10B share repurchase program announced in mid-2014.
- Although the macro ag backdrop is challenging with farm incomes falling and low grain prices, Citi says MON remains "well positioned as the strongest seed company with the best R&D pipeline in the industry."
Aug. 26, 2015, 12:40 PM
- Syngenta (SYT -11.5%) shareholders are calling on the board to clarify how it intends to make up billions of dollars of lost shareholder value after Monsanto (MON +8.6%) abandoned its takeover bid.
- "We need the board and the management to explain their Plan B," says Pauline McPherson, co-fund manager of Kames Capital's global equity fund, which holds SYT shares.
- Other investors question why SYT's management were so reluctant to open their books
- MON's $46B bid is the largest pulled deal since Valeant Pharma's November 2014 withdrawal of its $54B offer for Allergan.
Aug. 26, 2015, 10:52 AM
- Monsanto (MON +6.5%) says it is no longer pursuing a combination with Syngenta (SYT -15%) after a new bid was rebuffed; shares resume trading after a halt.
- MON says SYT has told it that the company's enhanced proposal did not meet expectations, thus it will continue to focus on growth opportunities built on its existing core business.
- MON says its latest proposal increased the cash component of the proposed takeover to 245 Swiss francs/share and maintained the same number of shares as in its April proposal; the revised proposal translated to a value of 470 Swiss francs/share.
Aug. 25, 2015, 2:14 PM
- Monsanto (MON -2.8%) and Syngenta (SYT -3.1%) are sharply lower after CNBC's David Faber reported earlier about growing opposition among MON shareholders to its continued approach for SYT.
- Reports yesterday indicated that MON had increased its offer for SYT to 470 Swiss francs, up from 449 earlier, and upped its break-up fee by $1B to $3B.
- Faber says he is "hearing significant opposition" to the deal from some major MON shareholders and expects them to relay their concerns to the company soon.

Ukraine. Sunflower meal exports hit a season-high
In March 2018/19, sunflower meal exports from Ukraine totaled 454 KMT. This is down 12.6% from the previous month, but up almost 27% from March 2017/18. Overall, September-March exports this season set a new record of 2925.2 KMT, reports UkrAgroConsult.
Despite a 17% drop in purchases, the EU remains the top importer of Ukrainian sunflower meal this season with an export share of 44%.
China, which first imported Ukrainian sunflower meal in December 2018, already purchased 634.3 KMT in MY 2018/19 and thereby became the second biggest importer (a 22% export share), but its demand temporarily weakened in March.
Belarus reduced imports by almost 19%, whereas Turkey and Morocco restored purchases to last year’s levels and regained their positions in the ranking of importers.

John Deere has introduced the 0 Series Round Balers to give customers more options when it comes to handling bales on the job. With a John Deere round baler from this line, operators will be able to strategically move bales as necessary, reducing excessive field travel.
Let’s take a look at the key features of the balers from the 0 Series Round Baler line.
Vertical Forming Chamber
The vertical forming chamber is designed to maintain uniform bale density. Incoming hay is tightly compressed into dense layers for a tight, solid bale.
Manual or Auto Adjustments
With a John Deere round baler from the 0 Series, operators have the option to either make manual or automatic adjustments as they work. On the 440E, for instance, the near-full bale size warning can be manually adjusted as needed. On the 450M, 450E, 550M, 460M, and 560M, all adjustments can be made from the operator’s station.
This option comes with the BaleTrak™ Pro monitor-controller. The monitor is specifically designed to sound an alarm when working with a near-full, full or oversized bale. It will beep once to notify the operator when he or she needs to even-up the bale as well, and it beeps twice when the correct size has been achieved.
MegaWide™ HC Feeding System
Some of the balers from this line have the MegaWide High Capacity and Cutting feeding system. Four-foot-wide machines have 14 knives, while five-foot-wide machines come with 20 knives. The roller baffle on the system has doubled in size, meaning operators can work at increased speeds. Fast-pitch augers are positioned on the primary rotor to move hay and silage past transition points, reducing the odds of plugging. A third drive roll makes for easy bale formation, even in high-moisture silage conditions.
Each John Deere round baler in this line comes with an adjustable hitch. This means operators can adjust the hitch height to optimized crop-feeding performance. Because the hitch is adjustable, operators do not need to use the 51-mm thick tractor drawbar kit.
The diamond-tread design of these balers’ belts is designed to grip the bale to prevent slippage and prevent chaffing. The belts also enclose 91 percent of the bale width, reducing the loss of material during the baling process. They are composed of a patented triple-weave process of both nylon and polyester materials.
If you have any questions on John Deere round baler 0 Series line, contact your local John Deere dealer.

Hi to all
I'm germinating some kumquat seeds and some of them look polyembryonic. On some a round part of the seed is dark green since the first day, others look like two together in shape, but with the same light green color. And one in particular is growing two roots, one from below and the other from one side.
Is there any way to tell wich ones are clones (in case kumquats do that)?

Begonia, Nonstop Yellow W/ Red Back
NonStop� has been �the� name in Tuberous Begonias for many years now, and the series just keeps getting better. This variety gives you deep yellow blooms with a blush of red on the back. They�re easy to grow, bursting into bloom just 4 to 5 months from sowing, and containing a large number of double, semi-double, and crested forms for an even greater show!
Expect the flowers to reach anywhere from 2� to 4 inches across, and to be exceptionally long-lasting. They begin in late spring from an early indoor sowing, and continue through summer and into fall. They don�t call themselves �nonstop� for nothing!

By Achike Uchena, Umuahia
Abia State Government has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with a private investor in palm, S-ATM Nigeria Limited, on the Abia State palm estate in Ohambele in Ukwa East Local Government Area of the state.
The Palm estate is expected to support Governor Okezie Ikpeazu’s drive to restore the state as the number one palm producer as well as to create jobs for the teeming youths of the state.
An official of the state government, Hon Azubuike assured the investors that government will keep their part of the agreement as Governor Ikpeazu is in a hurry to return the state to the years of palm plantations dotting the landscape of the state.
Expounding on the MoU, Hon. Azubuike said: “Part of what we have signed now is that S-ATM Nigeria Limited must build an oil mill inside the palm estate there in Ohambele. Also the estate is going to employ over 5000 Abians, with greater percentage of the employment from the Ohambele community.”
Speaking during the MOU signing ceremony, the Managing director of the S-ATM Nigeria Limited, Engr.Ogunleye , assured that his company will fulfill the terms of the agreement including investing the needed funds to realise the goals of the state palm plantation and employ Abians.
According to him, “more than 40% of the company’s employees will be Abia indigenes and we will also utilise the services of the members of the host community, thereby reducing the rate of unemployment in the state”.
The investor and his bankers, UBA Plc, expressed appreciation to the State government for providing the enabling environment for new investors to do business in the state without excessive bureaucratic bottlenecks.

Tanimura & Antle’s PlantTape automated transplanting system has been awarded the second annual Science & Technology Circle of Excellence Award, Produce Marketing Association (PMA) announced May 3. The award was presented at PMA’s Tech Knowledge symposium, held May 2-3 in Monterey, Calif., USA.
PlantTape’s Manager of Automation and Innovation, Jeff Antle, was presented the award by PMA Chief Science & Technology Officer Bob Whitaker, Ph.D., and Andy Kennedy, PMA Science & Technology Committee chair and co-founder FoodLogiQ.
“This year’s winner checks every single one of the boxes for what this award program is looking to recognize and hold up to the industry as exemplary,” Kennedy said. “PlantTape harnesses technology to achieve a broad range of benefits, from reducing labor demand to shrinking farming’s environmental footprint. This is the embodiment of our ‘work smarter, not harder’ mantra.”
“I am honored to receive this year’s Science & Technology Circle of Excellence Award on behalf of PlantTape. Just as this award acknowledges, PlantTape strives to bring automated solutions to an industry with a growing need for continued efficiencies, and of declining resources such as labor,” Antle said.
The PlantTape system harnesses technology to automate the sowing, germination, nursery care and planting of vegetable fields. Compared to traditional methods, PlantTape improves crop quality, sustainability and operation-wide efficiencies, while also offering growers more logistical flexibility.
For example, a traditional transplanting crew requires 25-30 people, and plants a field at a rate of about one-half mile per hour. The PlantTape system only requires three employees to plant a field, and can reach speeds of up to seven MPH. Seedlings can be planted at any phase of growth, giving growers greater flexibility in their decision making. Meanwhile, PlantTape uses less peat than conventional transplanting plugs, all of its materials are biodegradable, and the plants require less irrigation once transplanted in the field.
The PlantTape system is already in use commercially to plant a range of vegetables, including leafy greens, cauliflower, celery, onions, tomatoes and cabbage. Other crops are currently on trial.
PlantTape was chosen from 20 nominations by a panel of judges that included Brennan as a previous award winner. Eventually the panel will be made up entirely of previous award winners.
PMA created the Science & Technology Circle of Excellence Award in 2017. The award recognizes individuals or companies who are solving business challenges by applying advances in science and/or technology to create better products, processes or customer value – particularly that achieve labor efficiencies or lead to the ability to work smarter. It is one of five Awards of Excellence that PMA offers to recognize those individuals and companies who are advancing the industry through leadership, marketing and innovation.
“Science and technology are playing an ever-important role in our industry, particularly to help us solve labor challenges, work smarter and create new business opportunities,” Dr. Whitaker, said in announcing creation of the award program in 2017. “By recognizing innovators in this area, we hope to inspire our industry to follow their lead – that’s why the award is named ‘Circle of Excellence’.”
