Higher Prices Still Needed To Save Soybeans By Willie Featherstone, Jr. County Extension Chairman Soybeans: Higher soybean futures prices in the range of $10-Sll/bu. will be needed to ra tion available supplies against pro jected usage for 1983-84. Continued hot, dry weather dur ing August and early September has resulted in a US soybean crop of 1.53 billion bushels, 33^o below last year's 2.3 billion and the smallest crop since 1976. The North Carolina crop, as of September 1, is forecast at 29.3 million bushels, 44^0 less than last year's record production. Soybean supplies consisting of the new crop plus a 450 million bushel carryover will be less than projected utilization of 2.0 billion. Thus, higher prices will be need ed to ration the demand. Soybean carryover next September will be reduced to a "pipeline" level of about 125 million bushels. The strong basis and narrow spreads between delivery months suggest pricing for nearby delivery. Just as in 1974 and 1980, the peak in 1983 prices is expected to occur early in the marketing year. Short term storage may be profitable. Hogs: Hog prices have increased slightly since last month to the $46-S47/cwt. range. This level just covers variable costs indicating losses of $12-$14/cwt. for large operations. Stable to declining prices are forseen for fall and winter as con tinued liquidation proceeds.

If there is substantial improve ment in precipitation in the next few weeks, 6-7 cwt. steer prices ought to increase to the S56-S60 range by mid-October. Buying op portunities abound. 4S0 lb. steers bought this fall and fed on a (non droughty) corn silage-corn diet to gain 1 3/4 lbs. /day will breakeven with variable costs if spring prices equal this fall's. The odds are that spring prices will be a good $5/cwt. above this fall's. With a droughty corn silage corn ration to gain the same amount, spring prices need to be S2.50-S3.00 above those this fall to cover variable costs. Buying higher weights and lowering gains will lower breakeven prices for those buyers g relying on high corn rations. Flue-Cured Tobacco: Further cuts in 1983 crop size have resulted in improved prices and reductions in the proportions acquired by Stabilization. When markets in itially opened, weak demand offset the effect of the lower effective quota. As drought continued, estimates of current production dropped, ? e.g. the September forecast was 4% below a month earlier. The year's production is down 20<7o from 1982 levels with only 1 l^o due to reduced acreage. In North Carolina 1983 yields are estimated at only 1,890 lbs. compared to 2,140 lbs. last year.
