The Rural Voice, 2006-05, Page 2HENSALL DISTRICT COIIOPERA TIVE Soybean Outlook - Fundamental traders suggest new crop soybeans could trend lower based on record US/World carryovers, record soybean production currently being harvested in South America, and the fact that growers are expected to increase soybean acres in North America this spring in response to high fertilizer costs. White Bean Outlook - Gord Pryde, HDC's Dry Bean Marketing Mgr., has stated that end-user demand is increasing for beans produced by qualifying HDC Food Producers and processed at HDC's world class facilities. White Bean carryover is definitely not burdensome. Our supply chain relationships offer long-term stability and allow food producers the best chance to compete against the US Treasury, South America & China. HDC has many contract types and pricing options available to meet your needs.
