Soybean meal price jump shocks feed costs

Wayne Pearce notes soybean meal now costs about $19.45 per ton more than its value, making linseed meal a better protein buy. Bran remains overpriced when used in rations, with lower bran prices not expected until milling activity rises from the 1950 wheat crop shipments. Most other feeds are valued close to their cost relative to corn.
