By combining food-bearing trees and shrubs with poultry production, Haslett-Marroquin and his peers are practicing what is known as agroforestry — an ancient practice that intertwines annual and perennial agriculture. Other forms include alley cropping, in which annual crops including grains, legumes, and vegetables grow between rows of food-bearing trees, and silvopasture, which features cattle munching grass between the rows. Agroforestry was largely abandoned in the United States after the nation’s westward expansion in the 19th century. In the 2022 Agricultural Census, just 1.7 percent of U.S. farmers reported integrating trees into crop and livestock operations. But it’s widely practiced across the globe, particularly in Southeast Asia and Central and South America. According to the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization, 43 percent of all agricultural land globally includes agroforestry features. Bringing trees to the region now known as the Corn Belt, known for its industrial-scale agriculture and largely devoid of perennial crops, might seem like the height of folly. On closer inspection, however, agroforestry systems like Haslett-Marroquin’s might be a crucial strategy for both preserving and revitalizing one of the globe’s most important farming regions. And while the corn-soybean duopoly that holds sway in the U.S. heartland produces mainly feed for livestock and ethanol, agroforestry can deliver a broader variety of nutrient-dense foods, like nuts and fruit, even as it diversifies farmer income away from the volatile global livestock-feed market.

Trees actually have a much longer and more robust history in the Midwestern landscape than do annual crops. Think of the Midwestern countryside before U.S. settlers arrived, and you might picture lush grasses and flowers swaying in the wind. That vision is largely accurate, but it’s incomplete. Amid the tall-grass prairies and wetlands, oak trees once dotted landscapes from the shores of Lake Michigan through swathes of present-day Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, and Missouri, clear down to the Mexican border. These trees didn’t clump together in dense forests with closed canopies but rather in what ecologists call savannas — patches of grassland interspersed with oaks. Within these oak savannas, which were interlaced with prairies, tree crowns covered between 10 percent and 30 percent of the ground. They were essentially a transition between the tight deciduous forests of the East and the fully open grasslands further west. And in the region where Haslett-Marroquin farms — part of the so-called Driftless Area, which was never glaciated — trees proliferated even more intensely. In pre-settlement times, according to a 2014 analysis coauthored by Iowa State University ecologist Lisa Schulte Moore, closed-canopy forests of oaks, sugar maples, and other species covered 15.3 percent of the area, and woodlands (low-density forests) took up another 8.6 percent. Prairies — the ecosystem we readily imagine — composed just 6.9 percent. Oak savannas made up the rest.

Today In History

Dr. George Washington Carver was an agricultural scientist and inventor who developed hundreds of products using peanuts, sweet potatoes and soybeans. He is believed to have been born the month of January in 1864.

Dr. Carver discovered over 300 products from peanuts, soybeans and sweet potatoes, which aided nutrition for farm families.

Dr. Carver wanted to improve the lot of “the man farthest down,” the poor, one-horse farmer at the mercy of the market and chained to land exhausted by cotton.

Unlike other agricultural researchers of his time, Dr. Carver saw the need to devise practical farming methods for this kind of farmer. He wanted to coax them away from cotton to such soil-enhancing, protein-rich crops as soybeans and peanuts and to teach them self-sufficiency and conservation.

He achieved this through an innovative series of free, simply-written brochures that included information on crops, cultivation techniques, and recipes for nutritious meals. He also urged the farmers to submit samples of their soil and water for analysis and taught them livestock care and food preservation techniques.

Dr. Carver took a holistic approach to knowledge, which embraced faith and inquiry in a unified quest for truth. Carver also believed that commitment to a larger reality is necessary if science and technology are to serve human needs rather than the egos of the powerful.

His belief in service was a direct outgrowth and expression of his wedding of inquiry and commitment.

One of his favorite sayings was:

“It is not the style of clothes one wears, neither the kind of automobile one drives, nor the amount of money one has in the bank, that counts. These mean nothing. It is simply service that measures success.”

The Age of the Soybean: An Environmental History of Soy During the Great Acceleration

Edited by Claiton Marcio da Silva & Claudio de Majo (2022, open access!)

The soybean is far more than just a versatile crop whose derivates serve the protein needs of a meatless diet. One of the world’s most important commodities, soy represents the embodiment of mechanised industrial agriculture and is one of the main actors behind the socioeconomic, political and ecological transformations of industrial farming in several world regions. Despite the crop’s potential as a cheap source of vegetal protein for human consumers, most industrial soybean production has fuelled the global meat industrial complex, as animal feed. Soybean is thus, paradoxically, still a relatively ‘invisible’ crop to the public at large, although its global yields continue to increase at stupendous rates, lining the pockets of agribusiness and to the detriment of traditional agriculture. The transnational socio-ecological and economic entanglements characterising this versatile legume’s global expansion have prompted scholarly attention as researchers around the world have begun to unveil the main historical drivers behind the rise of the soybean in the global food chain. This book aims to expand the analysis, offering the most significant effort so far at an environmental history of soybeans. Interrogating the socioeconomic and ecological transformations determined by (and determining) the rise of soy in international food chains during the Great Acceleration, the volume gathers contributions from an international cast of researchers, working in numerous geographical contexts, from Japan and China, to India, African nations, the Southern Cone of Latin America, Northern Europe and the United States. Soybean farming, breeding, processing and marketing have bound together the histories of these diverse regions and altered beyond recognition their ecological and socio-economic contexts.

Globalizing the Soybean: Fat, Feed, and Sometimes Food, c. 1900–1950 Ines Prodöhl (2023, PDF open access)

Ines Prodöhl’s Globalizing the Soybean: Fat, Feed, and Sometimes Food, c. 1900-1950 (Routledge, 2023) is a history of how, why, and where the soybean became a critical ingredient in industry and agriculture in the first half of the twentieth century. Focusing on Japanese-dominated Manchuria, Germany, and the United States, Prodöhl shows that the soybean was a serendipitous solution to numerous and varied crises from the beginning of the century into the post-WWII decades. This story of imperialism, globalization, and technology begins in northeast China, the world’s soy cultivation center until the 1940s. It takes us to Germany, the number one importer of soybeans in the interwar period, and illuminates the various ways in which soy was integrated into the economy especially after the end of WWI as both an invaluable oilseed for industry and a source of protein-rich fodder for agriculture. Finally, Prodöhl explores how the United States first adopted the soybean mostly as a solution to overtaxed soils. Mixing economic, ecological, political, and technological/scientific history with a keen sense of the materiality of soy as a global product, Globalizing the Soybean is an accessible and enlightening book that will appeal to multiple audiences.

The Government of Beans: Regulating Life in the Age of Monocrops

Kregg Hetherington (2020)

The Government of Beans is about the rough edges of environmental regulation, where tenuous state power and blunt governmental instruments encounter ecological destruction and social injustice. At the turn of the twenty-first century, Paraguay was undergoing dramatic economic, political, and environmental change due to a boom in the global demand for soybeans. Although the country's massive new soy monocrop brought wealth, it also brought deforestation, biodiversity loss, rising inequality, and violence. Kregg Hetherington traces well-meaning attempts by bureaucrats and activists to regulate the destructive force of monocrops that resulted in the discovery that the tools of modern government are at best inadequate to deal with the complex harms of modern agriculture and at worst exacerbate them. The book simultaneously tells a local story of people, plants, and government; a regional story of the rise and fall of Latin America's new left; and a story of the Anthropocene writ large, about the long-term, paradoxical consequences of destroying ecosystems in the name of human welfare.

The Story of Soy

Christine M. Du Bois (2018)

The humble soybean is the world’s most widely grown and most traded oilseed. And though found in everything from veggie burgers to cosmetics, breakfast cereals to plastics, soy is also a poorly understood crop often viewed in extreme terms—either as a superfood or a deadly poison. In this illuminating book, Christine M. Du Bois reveals soy’s hugely significant role in human history as she traces the story of soy from its domestication in ancient Asia to the promise and peril ascribed to it in the twenty-first century. Traveling across the globe and through millennia, The Story of Soy includes a cast of fascinating characters as vast as the soy fields themselves—entities who’ve applauded, experimented with, or despised soy. From Neolithic villagers to Buddhist missionaries, European colonialists, Japanese soldiers, and Nazi strategists; from George Washington Carver to Henry Ford, Monsanto, and Greenpeace; from landless peasants to petroleum refiners, Du Bois explores soy subjects as diverse as its impact on international conflicts, its role in large-scale meat production and disaster relief, its troubling ecological impacts, and the nutritional controversies swirling around soy today. She also describes its genetic modification, the scandals and pirates involved in the international trade in soybeans, and the potential of soy as an intriguing renewable fuel. Featuring compelling historical and contemporary photographs, The Story of Soy is a potent reminder never to underestimate the importance of even the most unprepossesing sprout.

Critics of the federal program say it encourages more carbon-intensive farming and are calling for Congress to lower subsidies for big, wealthy producers.

(A farm in Iowa is surrounded by flood water.)

The country’s farmers took in a record $19 billion in insurance payments in 2022, many because of weather-related disasters, according to a new analysis that suggests climate change could stoke the cost of insuring the nation’s farmers and ranchers to unsustainable levels.

The Environmental Working Group, which has for decades critically scrutinized the Federal Crop Insurance Program, published new research Thursday, finding that the cost of the program has soared from just under $3 billion in 2002 to just over $19 billion last year.

“We found between 2002 and 2022 the crop insurance program sent over $161 billion to farmers, and annual payouts in 2022 were 546 percent more than they were in 2001,” said Anne Schechinger, an agricultural economist and director at EWG. 

The crop insurance program has become increasingly popular with farmers over the past 20 years as a way to protect themselves from drops in prices and weather-related disasters.

Taxpayers subsidize about 60 percent of the premiums; farmers cover about 40 percent and pay deductibles on smaller losses.  

“We know that part of the increase in payouts comes from an increase in participation in the program, as well as crop prices,” Schechinger said. “But we also know that payments for weather-related losses are also going up.”

EWG also analyzed who received the bulk of the payments, confirming previous research showing that most of them are going to large, wealthy farms that grow one or two crops.

Roughly 80 percent of subsidies go to the largest 20 percent of farms. That’s in part because they produce most of the crops, but also because smaller farmers have a more difficult time qualifying for the programs. This, critics say, encourages the growth of large farms that use production methods that are more fuel and carbon intensive.

In the past two decades, EWG found that roughly three-fourths of all indemnity payments, about $121 billion, went to corn, soybeans, wheat and cotton, and nearly $56 billion to corn growers alone.

Critics of the program worry that it will incentivize more carbon-intensive farming. Already U.S. farms are responsible for 11 percent of the country’s greenhouse gas emissions. A recent analysis suggests that percentage could rise to about 30 percent of the total by 2050—more than any other sectors of the economy—if farms and ranches don’t shrink their carbon impact. 

EWG’s research dovetails with other recent studies showing that the warming atmosphere has increased crop insurance payments and discourages farmers from adapting to climate change. More research also suggests that climate change will likely stoke crop insurance payments in coming years and finds that crop insurance premiums will rise.

Crop insurance protects farmers from the free market of the ecosystem.

Strong Dollar: Winners and Losers

The 2016 election of Donald Trump was a game-changer for global markets, with promises of tax cuts, deregulation, and a surge in infrastructure investment creating high expectations for economic growth. The result? A sharp rise in the value of the US dollar.

By early 2017, the Dollar Index (DXY) hit a 14-year high, fuelled by optimism over Trump’s pro-growth agenda and expectations of higher interest rates. In the years that followed, trade war uncertainties, fiscal concerns, and Federal Reserve rate tweaks led to slight corrections, but the dollar remained strong overall.

If we assume that 2025 will bring us a similar scenario (and EUR/USD is 1.05 today), who will be the potential winners and losers of this further USD strengthening?  

Among the winners, I clearly see US fertiliser producers (e.g., CF Industries) with their cheap access to natural gas—a key input for nitrogen fertilisers—helping them stay competitive despite the strong USD. Domestic demand from farmers may buffer the impact of reduced export appeal.  

Also, exporters from USD-pegged economies (Middle East). Producers of urea and ammonia in USD-pegged countries will enjoy stable contracts and continued strong demand, leveraging their cost advantages.  

Emerging market importers will suffer. For fertiliser-reliant nations in Africa, South Asia, and Latin America, a strong USD drives up import costs, leading to reduced fertiliser application and pressure on crop yields. Don’t forget about the European producers (e.g., Yara). European fertiliser companies struggle to compete globally, as the strong dollar makes US, Middle Eastern, and-don’t be surprised-Russian products more attractive to buyers.  

Let’s have a quick glance at the agricultural commodities. In the US, initially, domestic demand for grains like corn and soybeans will surge, giving US producers an edge within the local market.  

Exporters from countries like Brazil and Argentina will benefit from increased demand as their currencies remain weaker than the USD, making their crops more affordable globally.  

In the long term, US agricultural exporters will lose. The strong USD will eventually price US commodities like wheat and corn out of the global market, ceding market share to other producers.  

Farmers in emerging markets will sacrifice as well, as higher USD-denominated input costs (fertilisers, seeds, and machinery) put financial strain on farmers in developing regions, often reducing planting activity.  

Food importers. Nations reliant on staple crop imports, such as Egypt, for example, may face surging costs, exacerbating food security challenges.  

Again, if we look at Trump’s first term, the geopolitics was like a double-edged sword. China’s tariffs on US soybeans during Trump’s tenure crippled American exports, creating oversupply and depressed prices in domestic markets. At the same time, soybean demand shifted to South America, allowing Brazil and Argentina to capitalise on reduced US competitiveness.  

As we look ahead, with Trump potentially re-entering the global stage, we may see a repeat of these dynamics. A strong USD, coupled with geopolitical volatility, could reshape the landscape for fertilisers and agricultural commodities once again.

Obstacles 

In spite of its expansion, the renewable diesel sector confronts numerous obstacles. A significant challenge is the elevated production expenses, which remain a hindrance to widespread adoption. Even though renewable diesel is chemically identical to its petroleum counterpart, the feedstocks and sophisticated refining techniques necessary are often pricier. This results in diminished competitiveness compared to conventional diesel, especially in areas where petroleum prices stay low. 

Moreover, the contest for feedstocks poses another hurdle. The appetite for renewable diesel feedstocks, including vegetable oils and animal fats, is growing as the market develops. This surging competition can trigger escalating costs for raw materials and possible supply constraints, affecting the financial sustainability of renewable diesel manufacturing. Furthermore, there are apprehensions regarding the ecological consequences of massive feedstock farming, such as alterations in land use and deforestation. 

Market fluctuations and unpredictability also pose difficulties. The renewable diesel arena is significantly shaped by governmental regulations, fiscal incentives, and subsidies, which may evolve over time.

Why Biodiesel? A Clean and Renewable Energy Source

As industries worldwide seek greener energy solutions, biodiesel offers a viable alternative due to its renewable nature and ability to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Unlike conventional diesel, biodiesel can be used in existing diesel engines without modification, making it accessible and cost-effective for many sectors. Additionally, biodiesel production generates fewer emissions, and the fuel itself is biodegradable, providing further environmental advantages. With growing attention on carbon reduction and sustainable energy practices, biodiesel is poised to play an essential role in the future energy mix.

Understanding the Factors Behind Biodiesel Production Costs

Biodiesel production involves a complex process with multiple cost-driving factors, including feedstock prices, production technology, labor, and regulatory requirements. Here is a detailed breakdown of the components influencing biodiesel production costs:

1. Feedstock Costs

The primary raw materials for biodiesel production are vegetable oils (such as soybean or canola oil), animal fats, and waste cooking oils. Feedstock costs constitute the largest portion of biodiesel production expenses, often accounting for 70-80% of the total. The prices of these feedstocks are highly variable, influenced by global agricultural markets, weather conditions, and supply chain disruptions. For example, a poor crop yield can lead to higher feedstock prices, which directly impacts biodiesel production costs.

Monitoring feedstock costs is essential for businesses to manage biodiesel production expenses effectively. The volatility in feedstock prices highlights the importance of tracking market trends and adopting cost-effective procurement strategies.

2. Production Technology and Energy Costs

Biodiesel production involves converting oils and fats into biodiesel through a process called transesterification. This process requires significant energy input in the form of heat and electricity, making energy costs a substantial component of biodiesel production. Rising energy prices can impact production expenses, emphasizing the need for efficient energy management and technology optimization in biodiesel facilities.

Moreover, advancements in production technology, such as enzyme-based processes or innovative catalysts, can enhance efficiency and reduce costs. However, implementing these technologies often requires significant capital investment. By investing in advanced production methods, businesses can improve productivity and reduce operational costs in the long run.

3. Labor and Operational Costs

Labor costs vary by region and contribute to the overall expenses associated with biodiesel production. Skilled labor is required to operate complex equipment and ensure safe handling of chemicals and processes. Operational expenses also include costs for maintaining equipment, safety measures, and compliance with environmental regulations. Regular maintenance is essential to prevent downtime and reduce repair costs, as unplanned shutdowns can lead to financial losses.

Environmental and Regulatory Costs

As the demand for cleaner energy grows, environmental regulations on biodiesel production are becoming increasingly stringent. Compliance with these regulations is crucial for companies to avoid penalties and continue operations. In some regions, biodiesel producers are required to invest in pollution control technology or carbon offset programs to reduce environmental impact. Although these measures add to production costs, they are essential for meeting regulatory standards and maintaining a positive public image.

Failure to adhere to regulatory requirements can result in fines or legal issues, making it essential for biodiesel producers to prioritize compliance. Tracking regulatory trends and adjusting production practices accordingly can help companies manage costs effectively.

Trading Commodities on IQ Option: The Ultimate Guide

Commodity trading is about turning everyday essentials—oil, gold, agricultural products—into investment opportunities. Prices in this market fluctuate due to global events, supply-demand trends, and economic shifts. Here’s a comprehensive look at trading commodities and understanding the factors that drive their prices.

 What Are Commodities?

Commodities are fundamental resources that power the world. From the fuel in vehicles to the wheat in bread and the gold in jewelry, these assets can be traded like stocks or currencies. Trading commodities involves predicting price shifts—accurate predictions can lead to profits.

What Are Commodity CFDs?

CFDs (Contracts for Difference) let you trade the price changes of a commodity without buying or storing it physically. IQ Option’s platform enables you to go long or short on commodities, so you can profit whether prices rise or fall. You’re speculating on the price movement, bypassing direct exchanges like CME or NYMEX.

Types of Commodities

- Metals: Gold, silver, copper, and platinum are popular. Gold, long valued as a “safe haven,” has growing demand from tech sectors for rare elements essential to electronics.

- Energy: Oil, natural gas, and gasoline dominate the energy sector. With declining oil reserves and renewable energy advances, energy markets are deeply linked to global economic changes.

- Agriculture: Corn, soybeans, wheat, and coffee are essential agricultural commodities. As populations grow and arable land remains limited, demand for these resources could drive prices higher.

Trading Commodities on IQ Option

IQ Option offers a diverse range of commodities like oil and precious metals. Additionally, weekend trading on gold options and gold/silver pairs through OTC lets you trade after-hours. To check specific trading hours, click the “Info” tab for each asset’s conditions and market insights.

Factors That Drive Commodity Prices

To trade effectively, knowing what impacts commodity prices is key.

- Costs: Transport, storage, and insurance can impact pricing.

- Currency Fluctuations: Commodities are typically priced in U.S. dollars. When the dollar falls, commodities become more affordable for other currencies, increasing demand.

- Geopolitical Instability: Conflicts or sanctions that disrupt supply lines can lead to price hikes.

- Economic Trends: Growing economies demand more raw materials, while recessions lower demand.

- Government Policies: Tariffs, subsidies, and regulations shape commodity prices by affecting supply and demand.

- Inflation & Interest Rates: Commodities often hedge against inflation, and higher inflation usually leads to higher prices.

- Speculation: Trader speculation can move prices before supply-demand shifts occur.

- Tech Advances: Innovations can reduce extraction or production costs or create new demand, such as lithium in EV batteries.

- Weather Events: Natural disasters can heavily affect agricultural and energy commodities.

Tools for Commodity Trading on IQ Option

Mastering commodity trading on IQ Option starts with effective market analysis, both technical and fundamental.

1. Technical Indicators

   IQ Option’s over 100 indicators aid in analyzing price movements. Key ones include Moving Averages, RSI, and MACD. The Commodity Channel Index (CCI) is particularly useful:

   - Bullish Trend: When the CCI rises from 0 towards 100, it’s typically an uptrend.

   - Bearish Trend: When the CCI drops from 0 toward -100, it indicates a downtrend.

   - Action: Confirm trends by waiting for 3–4 candles after a breakout before trading.

2. Newsfeed

Stay on top of global events through the IQ Option newsfeed. Economic reports like U.S. Non-Farm Payrolls, CPI, and oil inventory data can heavily influence commodity prices.

3. Price Alerts

 Set price alerts on IQ Option to get notified when prices reach your target, so you don’t need to constantly monitor charts.

Best Commodities for Trading

Choosing the right commodity depends on the market and your strategy. Gold and oil are favored for their high liquidity and volatility, while agricultural products like corn and soybeans can yield returns during peak seasons. Metals like silver and copper are increasingly attractive due to tech-driven demand.

Conclusion

Trading commodities on IQ Option is about understanding price drivers and utilizing the right tools for strategic decisions. Whether you’re speculating on oil, tracking tech metals, or forecasting agricultural trends, IQ Option provides the platform and resources to help you succeed in the commodities market.

Today In History Dr. George Washington Carver was an agricultural scientist and inventor who developed hundreds of products using peanuts, sweet potatoes and soybeans. He is believed to have been born the month of January in 1864. Dr. Carver discovered over 300 products from peanuts, soybeans and sweet potatoes, which aided nutrition for farm families. Dr. Carver wanted to improve the lot of “the man farthest down,” the poor, one-horse farmer at the mercy of the market and chained to land exhausted by cotton. Unlike other agricultural researchers of his time, Dr. Carver saw the need to devise practical farming methods for this kind of farmer. He wanted to coax them away from cotton to such soil-enhancing, protein-rich crops as soybeans and peanuts and to teach them self-sufficiency and conservation. He achieved this through an innovative series of free, simply-written brochures that included information on crops, cultivation techniques, and recipes for nutritious meals. He also urged the farmers to submit samples of their soil and water for analysis and taught them livestock care and food preservation techniques. Dr. Carver took a holistic approach to knowledge, which embraced faith and inquiry in a unified quest for truth. Carver also believed that commitment to a larger reality is necessary if science and technology are to serve human needs rather than the egos of the powerful. His belief in service was a direct outgrowth and expression of his wedding of inquiry and commitment. One of his favorite sayings was: “It is not the style of clothes one wears, neither the kind of automobile one drives, nor the amount of money one has in the bank, that counts. These mean nothing. It is simply service that measures success.” CARTER™️ Magazine carter-mag.com #wherehistoryandhiphopmeet #historyandhiphop365 #carter #cartermagazine #georgewashingtoncarver #blackhistory #staywoke #blackhistorymonth #history #blacktwitter https://www.instagram.com/p/CnMQ9zoO1gr/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

TECHNICALS-CBOT soybeans may stabilize around $9.71-1/4 SINGAPORE, Oct 17 (Reuters) - The CBOT soybean November contract SX24 may stabilize around $9.71-1/4 per bushel, and bounce towards $9.82-3/4, as market has been much over-sold. The multiple bullish divergences on the hourly RSI confirm an exhaustion of the fall. A decent bounce is due. A falling trendline points a reversal point around $9.71-1/4. However, sometimes, even the divergence fails to work if the bearish momentum is too strong. As such, a break below $9.71-1/4 could open the way towards $9.55-3/4. On the daily chart, so much of the rise from $9.55 has been reversed that this low is likely to be revisited. A retracement analysis on the fall from $12.30-1/2 reveals support at $9.74-1/4, which may work together with the support on the hourly chart to stop the fall and trigger a bounce. The downtrend may not extend towards $9.55 until the bounce completes.

A Happy Swings

The funny swings – it's the best description of what happened in Egypt over the last 24 hours.

To start, 50,000 metric tonnes of prilled urea were sold to India at $328 per metric tonne FOB. Freight from Mediterranean ports is $30–32 per metric tonne, leaving little, if any, margin for a trader awarded the contract at $362 per metric tonne CFR. However, the urgency of the deal shows a mutual desire by both parties to conclude it.

Then the classic swing began, with granular urea traded continuously late into the night. Over 60,000 metric tonnes (or perhaps more?) changed hands in a range from $337 to $360 per metric tonne FOB. Prices fell from $350 to $337 and then climbed back to $360 per metric tonne FOB – a $36 per metric tonne swing within 24 hours. If you were on the wrong side of this rollercoaster move, I’m sorry to hear it. But if you rode the wave – congratulations!

What a breathtaking market, isn’t it?
