Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Midday Commentary 8/13/26- Arlan Suderman
Q: What's your thoughts on the proteins, Arlan?
Protein markets have been tough as speculative funds struggle to stay engaged; when charts weaken and support breaks occur, funds pull back and hedged feeders may sell on basis opportunities, contributing to further downside momentum.
Tuesday, August 4th, 2026- Brian Splitt and Katy Doumit
Q: Brian, how's things in your backyard there at Illinois? Bit of a tough day for the grain complex on Tuesday.
Brian notes mixed action across grains with corn, soybeans, and wheat under pressure due to weather, demand, and geopolitics, while cattle rallied late in the session. He emphasizes watching WASDE timing and crude oil as key external drivers, and he frames risk management around old-crop selling, hedges, and longer-term option strategies.
Thursday, July 30th, 2026- Bryan Doherty, Cattle Chatter and Darren Frye
Q: How can producers integrate put options with other marketing tools to navigate uncertain markets?
Producers can combine puts with forward contracts or cash sales to create a layered risk management plan, using puts to cap downside while forwards or cash sales capture favorable price moves, and adjusting hedges as weather and macro factors evolve.
Thursday, July 30th, 2026- Bryan Doherty, Cattle Chatter and Darren Frye
Q: Bryan, what are the basics and practicalities of a long put option for a farmer facing volatile prices?
A long put option fixes the downside risk by giving the holder the right to sell futures at a specified price, establishing a price floor while preserving upside potential and flexibility to adjust marketing plans as conditions change.
Midday Commentary 7/14/26- Arlan Suderman
Q: What stands out to you when you look at the global wheat picture right now?
The world cash wheat price is really set in the Black Sea, and the Kirk Strait is a focal point as it connects the Sea of Azov to the Black Sea; disruptions there, plus Russia's attacks on Ukraine's export infrastructure, are elevating wheat prices, given Russia and Ukraine together account for a large share of exports.
