As we returned from the Easter holiday break, the grain and oilseed markets have found great strength on this Monday. Same goes for live cattle and lean hogs, while feeder cattle don't like the higher corn prices. Arlan Suderman of StoneX joins us to discuss Monday's action.

On Monday, we saw the grain and oilseed markets show impressive strength. Corn and soybean oil made new contract highs as corn nears all time record highs. Wheat was our upside leader again as we watch weather risk, inflation, the war in Ukraine and more. Lean hogs also had an impressive day today. We discuss the market trade with John Heinberg of Total Farm Marketing. Learn more at www.totalfarmmarketing.com.

Grain and oilseed markets are mostly mixed near midday on Tuesday as it is mostly a money flow day, according to Arlan Suderman of StoneX. He joins us to discuss the trade action including the drop in crude oil prices today and a look at the livestock trade.

A fairly quiet day on Tuesday throughout the ag trade as we saw mixed to lower action in grains. Corn and winter wheat especially had a pullback while the soy complex was firm. Cattle had a solid day and we saw spread trading in lean hogs. Meantime, what happened to cotton? Matt Bennett with AgMarket.net joins us to discuss the trade today.
