USDA & BALANCE SHEETS

Here is the changes made to the balance sheet. Red highlights a bearish change. Green highlights a friendly change.

Corn 🌽

The USDA bumped yield AND acres.

This raised supply by +288 million bushels.

We saw feed and residul bumped by +100 million, which helped offset that increase in supply.

For a net increase of +198 million to our carryout.

The USDA opted to leave exports unchanged.

Beans 🌱

The USDA left yield unchanged.

However, they slightly bumped acres.

They also lowered our exports by -60 million while increasing crush by +15 million.

For a net increase of +60 million on the carryout.

PAST CARRYOUT CHANGES

Today’s report featured the largest increase to carryout for the Jan report in over the last decade for both corn and soybeans.
