6/30/2021 Report

The USDA released the Prospective Plantings report today and put planted corn acres at 92.7 million and soybeans at 87.6 million acres. This came in below estimates and is very supportive to the corn and soybean markets.  

Grain Stocks as of June 1st were also released, with corn estimated at 4.11 billion bushels and soybeans at 766 million bushels. Soybean stocks were below trade estimates and corn was also slightly below estimates. These stocks figures are supportive to prices as well.

August may not be a traditional planting month, but it’s a crucial time for growers looking to establish alfalfa or prepare for fall crops. For most of our trade territory, alfalfa should be seeded by August 30, ideally 6–8 weeks before the first killing frost to ensure strong root and top growth before winter. After September 1, success rates drop significantly.
