Grain pours from the bins at Cargill into waiting barges in the New Madrid Harbor on the Mississippi River. According to Bridget Christenson, global media relations director with the company, "Cargill continues to work closely with the industry associations and government agencies to minimize impacts and keep grain moving safely across the heartland to the river and export terminals." The Mississippi River is forecast to rise this week reaching -1.1 feet on Saturday.Jill Bock/Standard Democrat
