Moisture discounts impact Iowa corn prices this harvest season
Iowa State University extension economist Bob Wisner explains moisture discounts cut corn value. For 15 percent moisture, No 2 corn faces a 2 cent per point discount. higher moisture or late harvest raises costs. Drying reduces losses but adds costs. profits depend on drying costs, storage, and current corn price. Storage loans, reseal programs, and futures hedging offer price protection options through 1973.

Lubricating San Andreas Fault To Reduce Quakes
Pasadena scientists from Cal Tech study water lubrication at the Santa Fe Springs field to ease the San Andreas friction and trigger smaller, frequent tremors instead of rare, massive quakes. If feasible, pumped water could let the fault faces slip gradually, potentially saving lives and costs. Charles B Archambeau leads the geophysics team.
