Once farmers get their crops, cattle and goods together, they have to transport them to the next location. And lawmakers are working to extend a bill this week that will impact transport. We look at the surface transportation bill next in the agribusiness report. Highway bill extension is set to expire on thursday. So by then. Congress needs to pass a new bill. And its opted for another month long extension to work on a long term highway bill. Last week. The house transportation and Infrastructure Committee approved a multiyear surface transportatio n bill. Which establishes a plan on how the us maintains roads and bridges. A debate and vote is likely to happen in the house next week. Earlier this year the Senate Passed a multiyear highway bill. Which will be matched to the outcome of the house version. But unfortunatel y in washington that are really sucking all of the oxygen out of the room, and its ability to do transportation is one of those issues that a lot of people dont Pay Attention to unless theres a calamity, but it is something they utilize on a daily basis and its very integral. One amendment offered when the house bill is considered. Is the safe trucking act. Which lets heavier semitrucks drive on the nations interstates. And that could make the nations roads more efficient according to steenhoek. Since different states have different weight limits. Trucks can go from an 80 thousand pound configuration to 91 they add a sixth the weight more on the road. Which helps the road imprint. And gives another foot of stopping distance. And would take more semis off the road. Positive train control. Is also an extension sought out. It is a seven year old mandate that requires cargos develop a automatic breaking system. Steenhoek says without that extended. There could be a significant slowdown or elimination of service. Just like last week. Corn was influenced by wheat in the markets yesterday.

Worries that we could have some. Planting loss issues, and really the corn markets being artificially supported by the lack of producer movement at these levels. The soybean market is really going opposite of the other grains, down sharply today. I think the concern that the soybean market has is number one large u. S. And world supplies weve been also artificially supported by the lack of producer movement. The cattle markets coming under pressure today, we had poor cash cattle trade last week, compared to expectations. The cattle on feed report was also a bit on the negative side. So, thats adding to pressure today. Expect cash cattle today to trade no better than steady. Yeah, the market is bouncing back to start the week here after closing almost limit down on friday, the strength here is just more window dressing support and the cash market is, were still running a discount on the futures versus the cash so thats giving us some support. But look for supplies to pick up here to balance the fourth quarter. The colfax sheep and goat auction on saturday saw 370 head of sheep. Feeder lambs fetched the days high average price of two dollars and three cents per pound, while fed lambs averaged a dollar. 52 per pound.
