The company has put in place a funding and transportation facility to ferry wheat...

3. Record wheat prices may lead to tight inventories Wheat prices reaching historic highs in 2007 prompt many producers to consider increasing wheat acres for next year, and some seed dealers have already sold out their inventories. The first casualty of this year s record wheat prices may be next year s record crop. These varieties contain better disease resistance and higher yield potential than the varieties that they replace, thus giving the grain producer a higher return. Foster said grain producers should keep in mind several points...

4. Mahycos cotton hybrid may hit mkts by 2010 The RRF cotton hybrids have a greater weed control efficacy in addition to increased flexibility of application at any time from the seedling stage to seven days prior to harvest. While domestic cotton production is on the upswing, there is expected to be a shortage in cotton production globally due to a shift from cotton to other remunerative crops like wheat and corn. While approvals have already been granted for field trials which are being done in the south, the company plans to...

5. Food costs bite into bottom line The USDA in May predicted global production of soft white wheat, used across the world for sweet goods and breads, would be about 24 million metric tons, Squires said. The reason is a complex connection between the products, supply-and-demand economics and the government's encouragement to find alternative fuel sources.

7. Fields of dreams But the same boll-popping weather that's bringing the cotton crop to a good end has meant a poor start for wheat - a crop that likes a rainy fall.

8. For Intel's chip plants, different is not better Flour, ground from the same crop of wheat. Duplicating the technology means replicating the Hillsboro factory right down to the air its technicians breathe. Planning to make the chip, code-named Penryn, started a year earlier than usual for a new chip. And the company found Penryn could tolerate even less variation than in previous chip upgrades. Any change, no matter how slight, could wreck a chip's miniature features. For Intel's chip plants, different is not better. Seems like something...

9. Market watch: Time to market old-crop wheat With the market in tight supply, the job of the market is to encourage South American producers to plant enough acres to increase world ending stocks. The market has rallied, as it has put in a premium to attract acres, and this premium is likely to be removed once South American planting is under way. The United States is unlikely to produce another record-large crop in 2008, as corn acres will no doubt be reduced next spring, leaving end users to purchase corn during harvest, which will...
