Monday, April 7th, 2025- John Heinberg, Eric Snodgrass and Ron Geis

Grain markets did their best to stabilize on Monday with some green in old crop corn, soybeans and wheat trade was a bit higher across the board. Obviously tariffs and headline risk continues to bring volatility to the stock market and more. We discuss the market picture to start the week in a conversation with John Heinberg from Total Farm Marketing. Find more at https://www.totalfarmmarketing.com. We've seen large amounts of rain fall from Arkansas up through the Ohio River valley, causing widespread and devastating flooding. Not to mention, a ton of severe weather as well in recent days. We recap all of that, discuss frost/freeze potential for early this week and look at a new long term weather outlook with Eric Snodgrass from Nutrien Ag Solutions in our Weekly Weather Update.
