As the emergency call for blood and platelet donations continues, the American Red Cross asks eligible donors to sufficient supply for patients in need. August is a popular month for end of summer Family Vacations and gettogethers, weekend trips to the beach or pool, or shopping for backtoschool supplies. At the same time, many patients and their families across the country are focused on lifesaving medical treatments, which often include a blood transfusion. Patients like fiveyearold robyn ulrey of farmland, indiana, and her family. Platelets needed right now, platelets are being distributed to hospitals faster than donations are coming in. Platelets are a key clotting component of blood often needed by those who are extremely ill such as cancer patients, burn must be transfused within five days of donation so new donations are constantly needed. Its important that eligible individuals give platelets as often as possible to help ensure this potentially lifesaving blood product is available for patients like robyn. Unlike whole blood, which can be safely donated every 56 days, platelets can be donated every seven days, up to 24 times a year. One donation can help as many as three patients. Make a difference summer blood shortages can be overcome when generous volunteers roll up their sleeves to restock the shelves.

Low 62 season, field agronomists going through the corn belt think yields will vary. Why they were expecting a slight drop in iowa corn yield next in our agribusiness report. But right now, heres a look at todays opening far morning its. Record. Or near record crop supplies and low Commodity Prices are getting us farm groups to petition help from congress and the usda. The American FarmBureau Federation and the to act. Usda just responded to the dairy industrys problem. But farm groups say corn. Wheat. And bean prices are tanking. Nfu president Roger Johnson says Congress Needs to start working on the next farm bill immediately. Theres obviously some Serious Problems with the safety net that need to be fixed. So thats going to be one of our first requests is to get Congress Moving quickly. We think theres also some tweaks that can be made to that farmers get. Are designed to come in a year and a half after the fact. Adding they put those payments in the next fiscal year to save money. Hes calling for more funding for the Farm Service Agency to get direct and guaranteed lending for struggling farmers. Despite an ideal planting season. Field agronomists going through the corn belt think yields will be variable. 12 teams of four scouts expecting a slight drop in iowa corn yield. Rains were in the area as the tour went through the state. And field agronomist for Dupont Pioneer erik zumbach says as combines roll this year. Yield monitors will be all over the board. The numbers for iowa were released and the corn crop is estimated at a hundred and 88 bushels an acre. The average soybean pod count in a three by three foot square is 12 hundred 25 pods. Minnesotas numbers were rel theyre likely to see a hundred and 82 bushes an acre. And 11 hundred 7 soybean pods in a three by three foot square. Market analyst brian roach. Has more on how the pro farmer tour. Is affecting the markets. The pro farmer tour didnt find a reason to think that a strong bean yield is there with high pod counts across most of the states. And certainly didnt see enough reason to see a smaller corn yield, versus what the usda has. Our takeaway is that the 175, but lets just say this. Its still awfully big. It still confirms ending stocks will be increasing substantially this fall. So when youre talking about a 15 billion bushel crop or something near that its just really hard to get any bullish trade action out of the markets. So i think what were going to do is were going to press on down and find new lows. Were dealing with a seasonal tendency for cattle to roll over here. Cattle on feed numbers here recently have just supported and continue to support big inventories. Same problem. You know were seeing hogs well off the june highs here trying to find a bottom. Big supplies over on the livestock are keeping the futures market low and certainly the center traded cash markets are not giving any reason for futures markets to trade higher. Algeria is showing a lot of interest in us corn this year. Already theyve doubled the 20142015 marketing year in buying corn. About five hundred 27 thousand metric tons. Or about 20 million bushels.
