The National Corn Growers Association released its 2026 economic outlook, forecasting a $4.10 per bushel market year average corn price and near-record production costs of $928 per acre. It cites record global corn production and calls for new demand, including year-round E15 ethanol blends.
Expected rising supply and a low price forecast point to continued downward pressure on corn, while E15 policy talk is a potential demand lever.
After 1,102 past bearish report events, Corn moved a median -0.2% over 5 sessions (47% higher; middle half -1.8% to +1.3%), and +0.0% over 20.
