Grain prices

I like to ask every once in awhile what grain sells for in
your area, 50 pound bags. Here in eastern NY cracked corn is $10.00, whole corn is $9.50, layer pellets are $11.50 10% horse sweet feed is $9.50 and rolled coated oats are $9.00. Heifer is $10.00 , and I don't remember what steer grain is. This is from a grain mill, not tsc, or such commercial place, What are the prices in you area?
 
Layer pellets about 14. Broiler crumbles about 15. Haven't bought any grain since before harvest.

Northeast Kansas.
 
No idea, I grow my own, gets sold in bulk, not by the bag.

The speculation is if weather continues ok in South America, soybean meal (protien) will continue to drift steady to lower, while corn might bounce up a bit here in a couple weeks. That is just kinda a general feel of how grain people are thinking, anything can happen tho....

Wow, didn't know anyone could grow layer pellets, sweet feed and heifer, steer feed????????? Thanks for helpful info??..
 
I enjoy the funny tone of your reply, but you are kinda like those people who say who needs farmers, just buy your food in the grociery store. :)

Glad I could help. :)

comparable real close to you on the corn with oats and barley a buck or two off.. Don't fool with mixed/processed feed other than beetpulp, but are trying some pellets that, if the little bundles of joy like em, will eliminate everything else and be the same price.... and just make things easier with less storage....
 
Yes pellets are faster, easier and take up less storage, large
farm I worked on had the them blown into a bunker in the
barn, we would use a rubbermaid 2 wheel cart, slide open
the little door and gravity would empty them in to the cart.
One person would push the cart and another would scoop in
the amount of quarts posted on the stall door. Rest of the
barns we had to fill 50 pound bags and bring with a tractor to
the barns. I still mix sweet feed, oats and c. corn for my own
horses. Haven't tried them on pellets ever. Lol
 
these are grain pellets made locally (25 miles??) to 3 different mixes with herbs and minerals added... We've never fed the pellet or sweet feed, only good hay, cut with straw for the empty mares and geldings, and a half cup of mineral pellets. And a mix of oats, barley, beetpulp, and soy meal when we found it or cracked corn for the pregnant ones.....
 
Commodity feed: 1/3 corn gluten, 1/3 corn screenings, 1/3 soybean hulls, $300 per ton here in central MO. Feeding 4 calves to butcher, Beef Mate, $385 per ton.
