At the time of our first session on April 8 Dec2021 corn was $4.95/bu.  Most grain elevators in the Texas High Plains were quoting bids of $0.80-1.00 above Dec2021 corn.  So, to calculate the price on grain sorghum per cwt:

(Dec2021 Corn, $/bu  +  Adjustment, $/bu) / 0.56  =  grain sorghum bid, $/cwt.

At the moment Dec2021 corn is $5.35/bu.  Using $0.80/bu over for sorghum bids, then:

($5.35/bu  +  $0.80/bu) / 0.56  =  $10.98/cwt.

“Information to help Texas producers make better management decisions.”
