I was going to short my one chicken producer Cagle's Inc. (CAGAQ) but I noticed they are already in BK.

This is one I have followed for years (over 10 years) and bought when grain prices were at extreme lows. The larger chicken producers have already sold off (like TYN) and are more diversified. Also the management now is more sophisticated than Cagle's Inc. (CAGAQ) and use hedging strategies to reduce their production losses.

I think the eventual play will be to buy those companies that have an extreme sell off due to the uncertainty of the drought. It may tale 2-5 months for the impact to be felt through the supply chain. At some point some of these processors and/or value added suppliers might sell off to where there may be a good value "buy" entry point.

No hurry but rather now is the time to build up your list of candidate stocks. I was hoping that SEB would sell off but it may take several more months to impact their turkey & pork production units in Colorado. Still, that may not move the needle enough to impact the stock price. My buy in target price is $1,700.00/share.
