Grains and oilseed markets up with most others.  Crude is up $1.00 at the time of this writing, Gold is up $20, silver $0.45 and stocks slightly in the green. 

In grains specifically, heat in the forecast (mostly in the GFS,  and strength in soyoil continue to support.   There is also increasing market chatter about pollination issues with a new phrase for the ProFarmer tour bingo card “tight tassel wrap”.

July 31^st , the GFS (right) calls for 108+ for a large swath of NE Kansas, SE Nebraska and SW Iowa.  Again, the Euro model keeps the heat much further south and west.
