guys have planted a lot of corn. the things interesting is you get an early plant day and you assume it produceathize bigsh crop of all die but the statistics don't go that way. of the earliest plant dates we had 2004 was quicker. 2004 was a new record crop and 2005 was the worst in illinois since 1988. when you get the dry weather to put the crop inch -- in you get more dry weather later. 60% you don't meet the trend line which i thought was really odd so it almost a coin toss. >> what we do know is planting in june doesn't work. we can't get 2009 out of our memory. i just assume take april and i'll take my chances you are exactly right. i do think that the areas that were impacted most last year are the ones that are most resilient are the poorly trained ground most resilient to the type of dryness you are talking about. there is question about how much corn is planted in dry dirt. and depending on the rain events in the next week or two what the emergence will look like. all of this is minor because so much of it

an upswing is enticing to growers who switched to corn last year. >> the end of the corn prices were higher andicaten was lower. now it is vice versa. cotton prices are higher than normal. we are going to go back with all cotton. >> right now we are projecting more slow growth. it is a pretty steady increase. acres, we sort of project acres to level out between 10 and 11 million acres nationwide. we are going to get a good bump this year and then a slow upper trend. >>> winter weather also played a role in planting decisions. hudson says a return to cotton will boost employment levels in texas. that is it for headlines. now back to john for crop watch. >>> and in crop watch i am happy to report many folks in the midwest are able to get some serious planting done this week. farm journal reports from central illinois that plenty farmers will rolling. after two years of wet weather farmers are almost giddy with current conditions. he said the ground was in good shape. >> when u.s. farm report returns al sits down to talk markets. the discussion begins in just 2 minutes. please stay with

the whole corn, ethanol causing corn prices to increase is one of those little ideas that just as convenient and has stuck in our heads. every food economists that has looked at this problem has concluded that, in fact, those corn prices went up because of demand in china and india and the rest of the world, especially for their increase in need for meat and not for ethanol. it is an idea. it is often, often repeated, but i think especially with so many press in the room it is important to understand that that was not the cause. we absolutely need to pay attention to it. there are a lot of problems with corn ethanol. increasing food prices is not one of them. >> i read one other footnote. we bought sugar-based ethanol coming in from brazil, which would have been been a cheaper alternative and a better alternative. we continue to block it today. so to your point we need to look at this comprehensively and understand if our true mission is to wean ourselves from oil then why not sugar ethanol from brazil? why block that? >> the reason -- >> i'm getting the signal. gary's comment is going to be
