Major grain, oilseed stocks up on year

Major grain, oilseed stocks up on year

The USDA says September 1st corn, soybean, and wheat supplies were above year ago levels.

Corn came out at 1.377 billion bushels, 12% above a year ago, but below the average pre-report estimate, with slightly higher fourth quarter demand and a downward revision to the 2021 crop. On-farm stocks were 510 million bushels, 29% higher, with off-farm stocks at 867 million bushels, up 3%.

Soybeans were reported at 273.756 million bushels, up 7% and near the high-end of pre-report estimates, with improved demand canceled out by a higher revision by the USDA to 2021 production.
