USDA's October WASDE raised the corn yield to 181.2 bu/acre and production to 16.034 billion bu, adding 282 million bu to ending stocks despite higher use forecasts. The U.S. wheat crop was the smallest in more than 50 years, yet wheat ending stocks were still raised.
A larger corn crop and higher carryout weigh on feed grain prices, while the record-small wheat crop offers limited support because stocks rose. Teucrium argues that the Black Sea, El Niño, China purchases and palm oil supply are now the main price drivers outside U.S. data.
