Meteorologist Eric Snodgrass says a small shift in the summer ridge explains why 2017 produced record corn yields rather than drought. He notes that a delay in Brazil's rains pushed back planting of the safrinha corn crop by about a month.
He expects a wetter, more active storm track in the Corn Belt this winter.
Brazil's delayed safrinha planting raises the risk of lower second-crop corn output, which could support export corn prices later in the marketing year. The US weather outlook has less direct price effect.
