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?

Corn has low yields without nitrogen fertilizer and the price is up astronomically because there is a shortage. That silly old supply-and-demand thing.

Soybeans actually add nitrogen to the soil, so you don't need nitrogen fertilizer.

How many years have you been growing corn?

You seem to know everything about it.

I never claimed that. One question for you: Should folks be investing in corn futures now?
