Swanson, K., G. Schnitkey, N. Paulson, C. Zulauf and J. Coppess. Review size of harvest machinery with acres and bushels harvested to ensure it is in line with farm size and production. Soybean inspections decreased 8 percent from week to week, but inspections of corn increased 18 percent, as shipments to Asia increased significantly. This was 2 percent lower than last week, but still represented a significant increase in outstanding sales from the same time last year. Farms completely prevented from planting could receive large ARC-IC payments for the 2019 crop year, information which was known during the signup period (for more detailed discussion, see farmdoc daily, February 4, 2020, and April 18, 2023). 40 miles $.20/bu. A $14 reference price would be 66% higher than the current reference price. That said, a local elevator is always good to have around for the larger farmers who rent smaller fields in remote areas. The effective reference price is capped at 115% of the statutory reference price or $9.66 for soybeans (8.40 x 1.15 = 9.66). Musty 10 cents/bushel A comparison of the two sets of rates provides a baseline that can be used to evaluate costs of owning equipment and performing harvest operations versus outsourcing. 9 months prepaid storage is required by the government to seal grain. Guidelines are available here. A partner in Allied Insurance Agency and broker of crop and farm insurance by day, Rubeck has been a lifelong producer as well as an auctioneer with 15 years in ag. Custom trucking is generally less challenging to hire than other harvest operations. Other grades subject to market discounts. These are record times that were in front of, he said, noting the yields and prices. Pacific Northwest (PNW) grain inspections decreased 31 percent from the previous week, while Mississippi Gulf inspections increased 15 percent. And while interest rates for ag-lending are favorable right now, a sudden drop in crop prices could leave even the bigger farmers in the lurch. Raising soybeans reference price to this level would have large budgetary impacts for the next Farm Bill. Included for each operation are the number of reports, range, most frequently reported rate and the average rates. <>/Metadata 6449 0 R/ViewerPreferences 6450 0 R>> Elevated autumn temperatures can lead to rapid grain moisture loss, with losses as great as 1% per day when temperatures are high and particularly when also breezy (see Nafziger, September 16, 2017). The total cost per bushel of soybeans is projected at $8.72 for non-herbicide-tolerant beans at 56 bpa, according to the report.. For the week ending December 14, the U.S. average diesel fuel price increased 3.3 cents from the previous week to $2.559 per gallon, 48.7 cents below the same week last year.

With many factors that vary by farm and year, it can be difficult to determine the best approach for harvest operations from a cost management standpoint. Likewise, as grain prices decline the target moisture for harvesting corn decreases. Are Crop Insurance Net Indemnities and Commodity Program Payments Countercyclical? Thats the main reason Im renting out my ground and quitting, said Rubeck, owner of 300 acres. This has been the situation for soybeans compared with other crops over the life of the ARC and PLC programs.

Webpreparation, hauling hay and livestock, and other custom work for fall operations. Because of the capital investment needed for harvesting equipment, the decision on how to manage harvest operations will generally be a long-run decision. The following modifications would provide more targeted benefits to soybean producers: Both modifications would result in benefits (larger or more likely program payments) when market prices move further above statutory reference price levels. Given all that, its increasingly problematic for producers under about 1,500 acres to handle the increased costs associated with trucking grain an extra 20 to 40 miles, let alone finance extensive capital improvements such as bins on their own farm, he said. Most of the farmers in the 1,500- to 1,800-acre category already truck greater distances depending on prices. The most significant appreciation in the land market in Brazil occurred in areas used for grain production, followed by sugar cane and coffee, according to the S&P Global Commodity Insights report (see Figure 1). Ceres Solutions does offer grain services in partnership with Gavilon Grain in Clay Countys next-door neighbor Vigo Terre Haute, 22 miles from Brazil. If kernels lose moisture without changing size or shape to become more dense, yield loss occurs (see Nafziger, October 3, 2003).

Farm Show 2020, By Brian Boyce Published: December 02, 2021. Raising soybeans statutory reference price of $8.40 to levels comparable to other crops will be difficult. Disclaimer: We request all readers, electronic media and others follow our citation guidelines when re-posting articles from farmdoc daily. Food grain: At 120.4, the index for February increased 4.8 percent from the previous month and 35 percent from a year ago. Given PLCs performance, the 15% of soybean acres enrolled in PLC seems high. Within the next 10 days (starting December 11), 66 vessels were expected to be loaded50 percent more than the same period last year. Based on the combined fertilizer and fuel cost increases, cash costs increased $0.58 per bushel (from $2.28/bushel to $2.86/bushel) for the dryland corn budget using a 145-bushel yield and $0.66 per bushel, increasing from $2.16/bushel to $2.82/bushel for the irrigated corn budget with a 245-bushel yield. Litz said many of his larger customers are building additional storage operations on their own farms, and this could certainly bring risk depending on the future costs of inputs and market prices. All grain delivered during the harvest period will be stored each Thursday evening unless prior arrangements have been made. PLC has provided no payments for soybeans from 2014 through 2022. Clay County farmer and insurance agent Scot Rubeck said for him and a number of his neighbors, this will be the last growing season, and the lack of access to local grain elevators going forward is a major factor in that decision. At $6.50 that would be 175.50 - 60 for fuel. As shown in Table 2, the economic cost per acre is dependent on acres to harvest and size of combines and heads, a larger combine used on more acres can have the same per acre cost as a smaller combine used on fewer acres. Harvesting before optimal timing can result in additional drying costs and harvesting after optimal timing can result in yield loss as the grain continues to dry and lose moisture.

Unlike other field operations which are typically reported on a per acre basis, grain hauling is generally factored on a per bushel basis. Going forward, he said more troubles could still be at hand for producers not just in Clay County, but across the country as the cost of inputs are projected to increase for 2022 and perhaps 2023, with no guarantee that crop prices will match these costs. Yields had to be well below benchmark yields before ARC-CO would make payments. I think it is a good time to borrow rate-wise, with some precautions. Oats: For soybeans to have payments in 22% of the years like oats, the soybean statutory reference price would have to be above $8.57, the MYA price in 2019. However, soybeans effective reference price did not increase above the statutory reference price during the life of the 2018 Farm Bill (2019 to 2023). For the week ending December 12, 703 grain barges moved down river181 barges more than the previous week.

The following comparisons are relevant to farms who already own newer harvesting equipment or those who are considering a purchase while aiming to manage costs effectively. The local break-even for corn this year was between $4 and $4.75 per bushel, with $10 to $11 for soybeans, depending on size variables, he said. These changes could also potentially benefit other crops if their market prices increase relative to their statutory reference prices in the future. Although it is likely easier to secure trucking when hauling direct to a market, in some areas custom trucking to a farm bin site is also possible. Harvest decisions may also be dependent on requirements of a landlord or business owner. "The Agricultural Risk Coverage County Level (ARC-CO) Option in the 2018 Farm Bill." 2 0 obj And as all producers know, those figures dont include labor or other soft costs. Percentages were calculated from PLCs inception in 2014 to 2022. Each county either has 1) one yield series for All of the crop or 2) two series for non-irrigated and irrigated yields. Webcorn price, at $6.10 per bushel, is up 53 cents from last month and $1.35 from February 2021. 0.6% of price/point 10.1 and above. The intent of the survey is to provide producers with additional information to help with their farm management decisions. Pods in Beans 10 cents/bushel A number of assumptions are made to estimate economic costs for combining and grain cart, but cost of hauling grain is even more complex. }Q~;O@4miP5BE7ymQwE#w,WH%)Q [C\mi@6V+27[g*@KU2+%xB.>^dfwWkrqr?nefuL Table 1: Grain Transport Cost Indicators (xlsx) - Weekly changes in truck, rail, barge, and ocean freight rates using diesel prices, nearby secondary rail market rates, Illinois barge rates, and ocean freight rates from U.S. Gulf and PNW to Japan as proxies. The effective reference price is capped at 115% of the statutory reference price or $9.66 for soybeans (8.40 x 1.15 = 9.66). Custom Rates for Grain Sorghum Harvest, 2018, by District District A hindrance to choosing ARC-CO is the requirement of being in PLC to purchase the Supplementary Coverage Option (SCO). The farmdoc daily website falls under University of Illinois copyright and intellectual property rights. Net wheat export sales were 0.617 mmt, up 38 percent from the previous week. Brian Boyce is an award-winning writer living on a farm in west-central Indiana. We calculated the number of times PLC triggered payments for the nine program crops with at least 2 million base acres. A farm may justify the higher cost per acre, with the expectation for added costs or lost revenue if harvest progressed at a slower pace with the smaller combine. Benchmark revenue equals benchmark price times benchmark yield, where both the benchmark yield and price are based on the five-previous values lagged one year (see farmdoc daily, September 17, 2019). Improve the effective reference price mechanism by raising the factor on the Olympic moving average above 85% and/or increasing the limit on the payment factor above 115% of the statutory reference price. For example, a 2,000-acre farm could run a 540 horsepower combine at a cost of $45.80 per acre for corn or a 320 horsepower combine at a cost of $39.70 per acre for corn.

MYA price estimates for 2022 are used as the marketing year is not over. Growers receiving $6.00 per bushel only need to have an 8% harvest loss to pay for drying costs of $0.50 per bushel. For the week ending December 12, barge grain movements totaled 1,120,459 tons. For example, the cost of running a 320 horsepower combine on a 2,000-acre farm is $39.70 per acre for corn, equal to the cost of running a 540 horsepower combine on a 2,400-acre farm. hY]oF+R}zwfg? This will affect every farmer in Clay County, he said, pointing out that such concentration leads to longer lines of trucks at fewer elevators farther apart. Sealed grain storage must be paid when the warehouse receipt is issued. This can be a way to reduce capital demands and cover one of the necessary harvest job tasks without the added labor costs of an additional farm operator. WebIf 1,000 bushels are hauled each trip, the price at the second location would have to be ($208 / 1,000 miles) = $.208 per bushel higher to make up for the greater hauling cost. Im hearing a lot of that and Im seeing it, Litz said. Ive heard more small farmers say theyre not going to continue farming after this year than any other in my 15 years in the ag business, Rubeck said. From 2014 to 2023, the MYA price for soybeans has never been below $8.40 (see Figure 2). Moreover, raising one crops reference price while keeping the other crops statutory references prices fixed could be politically problematic. endobj WebA typical rate is an initial charge of 9 to 16 cents per bushel for the first 3 months of storage and an additional charge of from 2 to 4 cents per bushel for each additional month. When spread over the same acres used to calculate farmdoc economic costs, the total average cost for custom combining is $90,650 (1,500 x $36.70 + 1,000 x $35.60). Given the close comparison of economic costs to custom rate costs, it likely would not make sense for a farm to hire a custom combine or grain cart if those pieces of machinery are already owned unless the farm plans to make a long run decision to change approach and sell the equipment. hTj0_%o&PlHK..R=P4Dn99,,!9wqNV+ZDKAPh `'!OW5cF+mQR Inputs are going to be significantly higher next year.
