Grain Markets
Still wait and
see on prices
Traders have begun to focus on
cold temperatures more than on rain.
But even the threat of frost didn't do
much to strengthen prices. We are
still hearing conflicting reports about
damage and basically, speculators
simply got tired with no sign of news
coming along, and gave up on their
positions. As a result, futures prices
drifted lower over the month. I still
have a strong feeling that futures
prices will move higher into harvest
simply because I will be surprised if
yields meet current projections.
CORN
In Ontario, the corn crop is ma-
turing quickly and a small acreage
has been harvested (September 16).
It is surprising how quickly corn is
drying down but soybean harvest
will likely take precedence over
corn. The first corn harvested will
attract some good premiums, but
other than wet millers, there won't
be exceptionally strong demand.
The one very positive fact seen so
far is the exceptionally good quality
even though yield might be lower
than expected in the south.
On September 9, USDA issued
production and supply/demand
reports. Corn production estimates
were lowered by 124 million bushels
to 7.229 billion and the projected
ending stocks were dropped by 68
million bushels. Both domestic feed
use and exports were reduced and
even though the reports were quite
bullish, futures prices did not move
up because of the very negative
soybean reports.
Another report out this week that
I thought was very significant
