RUSH EXCERPT:
KUYLEN: “Well, every time we think the market’s stabilized — I sold a lot of grain last year at harvest for $5.70, and that was at a loss. I felt bad doing it, but I didn’t have any room for it. Well, it ended up that was an awful good move, and right now our market is $3.96 here locally. So it’s — at $4.40 a bushel, I lost $70 an acre just putting my crop in this year. Now we’re down to $3.96.”
