Uncertainty of US 2026 crop production, US and world crop carryouts, and the potential impact of a strong El Nino on the South American crop is pushing prices.
The next WASDE report is to be released at noon on September 11, 2026.
Watch this report closely as it could have a significant impact on grain prices with all of the concerns in the market today.

We have had a nice improvement in grain prices over the past few weeks with corn prices increasing $.86/bu and soybeans $1.44/bu recently.

As your enjoying that Indiana Sweet Corn, check out this interesting information! 🌽

Most people look at a corn ear and see hundreds of kernels. Experienced gardeners see hundreds of individual pollination events.
That's what makes corn so different from almost every other vegetable in the garden.
Every single kernel begins with its own silk.
Each silk is connected to one tiny ovule inside the ear, and every one of those silks needs its own pollen grain to produce a kernel. Miss just one silk, and that spot stays empty. Miss hundreds of them, and you end up with an ear full of gaps.
That's why a perfectly filled ear of corn is actually a small miracle of timing.
The tassels have to be shedding pollen while fresh silks are still emerging. The wind has to carry enough pollen through the patch. Rain can wash pollen away. Extreme heat can shorten the pollination window. Even planting only a short row instead of a block can leave many silks waiting for pollen that never arrives.
It's also why veteran corn growers almost always plant in blocks instead of one long row. Corn depends on the wind—not bees—to move pollen from plant to plant. The more pollen floating through the patch during tasseling, the better the odds that every silk gets the one pollen grain it's waiting for.
The next time you peel back the husk on a beautifully filled ear, remember what you're really looking at. Not just rows of kernels... but hundreds of tiny pollination successes that all had to happen at exactly the right time.

Thank you for your service Marshal Brad Fisher

Today, the Lynn Fire Department mourns the heartbreaking Line of Duty Death of Captain Brad Fisher.

Captain Fisher was tragically struck and killed while deploying tire deflation devices in an effort to safely end a vehicle pursuit during his full-time service as the Lynn Town Marshal.

Brad dedicated more than 30 years of his life to serving our community, joining the Lynn Fire Department in 1995. Whether wearing the badge of a firefighter or a law enforcement officer, his commitment to protecting others never wavered. He answered the call whenever his community needed him, and his legacy of selfless service will never be forgotten.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Brad’s family, friends, his law enforcement family, and everyone whose lives he touched.

Rest easy, Captain. We’ll take it from here.

End of Watch. Never Forgotten.
