But farmers need to begin planning for their 2009 crop, and food producers need to make procurement plans for the remainder of this marketing year. The type of plan that will be profitable depends on the answers to a number of key questions: Have we seen the end of high corn prices? Will prices continue to decline, and if so, how low will they go? Have we seen the end of the food versus fuel debate?
