BEAN MARKET SUMMARY
BEANS: Trade and demand were very limited this week as most buyers and
sellers are only trading beans on an as needed basis until new crop arrives. All
varieties remained mostly steady on very limited transactions, with wide price
spreads being reported due to quality differences. The bean crop is ahead of
schedule in Minnesota and North Dakota, as USDA's NASS showed 75% and 76% of the
crop to be fully podded respectively, compared to 18% and 27% last year.
Colorado and Nebraska received some cooler temperatures and scattered
precipitation again last week, which improved the good to excellent rating in
Colorado from 21% last week to 24% this week, with Nebraska improving from 45%
to 51%. Crop conditions are favorable in Washington with 90% of the crop rated
in good to excellent condition according to NASS.
