BEAN MARKET SUMMARY
BEANS
Dry Edible Bean market activity continues to be very slow. However,
limited activity was noted at mostly steady dealer levels on a few classes.
Warehouse movement remains limited on commercial business. Growers continue
to be unwilling to sell at current levels as they hope prices will increase
after the first of the year. All prices quoted are quoted on very limited
trading. Next published report will be January 6, 2009. PINTOS not
established in most regions with ND steady to 1.00 lower at the dealer level
and grower levels mostly steady. GREAT NORTHERNS were not established at
either the dealer or grower level. SMALL WHITES were not established at
either the dealer or grower level. LIGHT RED KIDNEYS mostly steady at the
dealer levels, no recent comparison in CO/NE; grower levels were not
established. DARK RED KIDNEYS were not established at either the dealer or

comparison.
