10/12/10 class update

Welcome to another beautiful day in the neighborhood.... :)
We have been busy with harvest!  Beans are almost done for us.

Committee updates-
Buildings and Grounds- Tore the tin off of the farrowing bin that we are tearing down.
Marketing-We have held off on selling anymore of our commodities.  Fortunately the prices for corn and beans have increased significantly with over $5/bu corn and $11/bu beans. as soon as we have all the crop harvested, we will make the decision the sell more.  We believe the prices will continue to increase due to the report from the government that came out stating our yields are lower then expected.  Also, we have one 3000 bushel contract of beans filled already.
Machinery-All harvest machinery is running in good shape and tillage equipment is almost ready.
Customs-Working on bills for soybean harvest.
Crops-Almost done with beans, looking to finish tomorrow. Continued to monitor moisture percent in corn fields. Yields are right around 50 bu/a.  Corn will be ready to go as soon as we get done with the beans and switch heads.
Finance-Updated cash flow, we are going to approve bills to be paid and work on our experiential teaching.
PR-We are working on our experiential teaching as well.  We also are taking the class picture on Thursday! :)
