Iowa Farm Outlook Prices steady to up for soybeans
Iowa State University economist Extension Economist Bob Wisner reports spring prices for soybeans likely steady or modestly higher than late January. Prices rose from a October low to about 2.58 dollars per bushel by late January, still below year-earlier levels. Projected year totals depend on beans under loan, acreage and yield prospects, with potential price increases to redeem loans and reseal stocks.
