We haven’t yet seen the worst of this credit crisis, says Chris Mayer. A lack of funding is forcing farmers to reduce crop planting. And that will soon send commodity prices soaring again. Chris finds five beaten-down fertilizer and irrigation companies that will benefit as agriculture rebounds.

Martin Hutchinson in Money Morning says that over the long-term oil and agricultural commodities are likely to deflate.

Flooding in the Midwest and fears of crop damage caused corn prices to climb in Chicago for the eighth consecutive day — their biggest gain in 11 weeks. Prices are expected to hit $8 a bushel by next week.
“Corn is in trouble because of the wet spring that has drenched the midwest,” says Justice Litle in Taipan Daily.
Yesterday, the USDA said in a report that American corn output will be down significantly from last year’s estimate.

Wheat sank to its lowest price since August last year as US farmers began harvesting what is expected to be the biggest winter grain crop in a decade, reports Bloomberg:
Production will increase 17 percent from a year earlier to 1.78 billion bushels, the most since 1998, the U.S. Department of Agriculture forecasts. About 4 percent more acres were seeded from September to November, the agency said. Wheat prices have tumbled 45 percent from a record $13.495 a bushel on Feb. 27.
