With the possibility of tighter profits in 2014, will you cut crop inputs?
2014-01-09 23:24:53| Corn & Soybean Digest
Corn and soybean prices aren't looking to make any big upward swings, meaning profits will be tighter in 2014. As growers try to stick to operating budgets, some inputs may have to give. We'd like to know: What will you cut, if anything, in 2014? Will you cut chemical applications? Seed treatments? Fertilizer? Or maybe you won't cut anything at all because you need those inputs to grow the best crop. Take our poll and let us know! I'll cut fungicide applications. I'll cut herbicide applications. I'll cut seed treatments. I'll cut P and K fertilizer application. I won't cut any inputs in 2014. Go to result page on submit: 0

Cane Farmers and B.S.I. meetwill there be a crop season next week?
2014-01-09 07:11:34| Sugar Industry News
Tonight there is a development up north where the sugar industry has been at a standstill. And there is light at the end of the sugar-cane crop tunnel, as both B.S.I. and the BSCFA have compromised, if only tentatively, on a way forward. Both parties met today in Orange Walk, and the BSCFA presented as a matter of priority an interim agreement. Not surprisingly, the first point on that agreement is the issue of payment for bagasse. B.S.I., again not surprisingly, balked, stating that majority shareholders ASR would not accept the point as it is written, and there would have to be modifications. So that\'s where it all restson those modifications. If all goes well, the agreement would be signed by Monday and the crop season could get underway by Thursday. The clock is ticking and time is running out and both parties are hopeful that the interim agreement paves the way for a crop season to start next week. B.S.I.\'s Belizario Carballo says that B.S.I. has promised the revised interim agreement by this Thursday.
