Grain elevators are watching for potential acreage shifts this year to determine how much storage is needed for 2022 crops.
Jeff Adkisson with the Grain and Feed Association of Illinois tells Brownfield their members are interested to see farmers planting intentions for this year considering commodity prices and high input costs.
“You’re getting roughly three times as much volume of corn as you do an acre of soybeans, so from an elevator perspective if there is a shift to more soybean acres then we may have some extra storage space.
