In addition to these funds, the CFS Foundation will contribute approximately $92,000 this year to local organizations.

With planting progress looking very favorable and the weather forecast showing above normal temps and below normal precipitation for much of the corn belt all signs point to very good planting conditions. With that, we gave up yesterday’s gains on old crop and put in some new lows on December corn.
