Thoughts for 2012 and Beyond • General economic conditions • Continued worldwide economic recovery is a major key for crop prices • Supply/demand concerns • Droughts, floods, etc.; South America now, U.S. this spring • Biofuel growth and energy demand • Will supply be able to keep pace with demand?
