***Note, markets are closed on Monday for Memorial Day and there will be no new program for Monday. Please enjoy your weekend and remember those veterans who paid the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom this holiday weekend.*** On Friday, we saw the grain markets largely supported with good gains in soybeans, soybean meal, KC wheat and Minneapolis wheat. Corn and Chicago wheat were largely firm around unchanged while livestock trade mixed to lower. We discuss the week in the markets and get some great insight from Bryan Irey with Crossroads Coop on today's show.

We saw the grain trade struggle to close out the week on Friday with headline news of Turkey banning wheat imports until October 15th taking a bite out of the European and U.S. wheat markets. Soybeans and corn also found pressure as a sharply higher U.S. dollar acted as a significant headwind to end the week. Livestock fared a little better with solid gains in feeder cattle to close out Friday's trade. Today, we welcome Brady Huck from Advance Trading Inc. and ATI Pro Media to the show for the first time. We take a longer look at the cattle markets and touch on the volatility in grains as well on today's show.
