Strong recommendation for Mastering Grain Markets[0] if the discussion in this thread around why spring wheat is up interests you. Global ag commodities like this are keyed off of so many events, it’s really interesting to dive into the history and mechanisms that exist in the space to deal with volatility. I read this book when interviewing with a geospatial intelligence company in this space and I learned way more than I expected (having some previous mix of academic training in the Midwest that frequently touched on ag).
Also the podcast Escaping 1980[1] if you want an example of a global event that drastically altered US ag production, leading to a decline/crisis that plenty of farmers still have as a pivotal event in their memory.
