Port closure slows soybeans and grain costs rise
Farmers in Frederick face higher transport costs as the Port of Baltimore grain elevator remains closed for repairs. MGPA director Lynne Hoot says the halt cuts soy prices by about 25 cents per bushel, delaying repairs with an estimated 7 to 10 million dollars needed. Insurance issues and funding hold reopening, while port officials seek a cheaper plan to resume shipping.
