its a cycle.
but if you are a farmer...pull out the johnnie walker cause you are sitting pretty at 10-15$ a bushell for wheat...if you were lucky enough as not have your crop destroyed by that pesky mother we like to call 'nature'.
ps: dont invest in agriculture its overspeculated.... especially fertilizer manufacturers (like agrium, potash and CF industries)
Short oil...its price is inflated with a good dose of spectulation. There are good prospects in some ETF's like DUG (nyse) and even a horizon fund like HOD (both ultrashort oil by 2x). DUG also gives you a decent 3% yeild.
