Economist says grain market volatility doesn’t have an end in sight

An ag economist expects volatility in the grain markets to continue into 2023.

Dr. Dan Obrien with KSU tells Brownfield despite a recent downturn in the markets, there’s good news. “We’re optimistic for prices relative to where we were a year or two ago,” he says. “We still have a lot of volatility figuring out how we land these markets coming off of fall harvest.”

He says geopolitical conflicts and a La Nina weather pattern have contributed to tight ending stocks.
