If you’d been paying attention, you would know that due to high prices/low availability of nitrogen fertilizer, there’s a lot less corn being planted this year and more soybeans.

And corn is used in darned-near everything.

Uh, I have been paying attention. And I factor the above items in with facts like farmers being paid not to grow crops for decades now. We'll see how it all shakes out, but if there are expected price spikes in corn and I'm a corn farmer, do you really think I'm going to switch to all soy? This almost sounds like a scenario where we'll end up with a glut of corn by the end of the season.

Honestly, I hope the corn farmers make serious bank this season. God bless 'em.
