Agri-Pulse reports that House and Senate Republicans are closely aligned on farm bill provisions in their reconciliation bills, though the Senate version is more expensive and more favorable to corn and soybean growers. Parliamentarian review under the Byrd rule may still change some provisions, such as the Market Access Program funding routed through a new account.
Differences in the final package affect how much support corn and soybean growers receive, which feeds into longer-term acreage and export-competitiveness expectations for feed grains and meal.
After 439 past neutral policy events, Corn moved a median +0.1% over 5 sessions (51% higher; middle half -1.3% to +1.2%), and +1.1% over 20.
After 554 past neutral policy events, Soybeans moved a median +0.0% over 5 sessions (51% higher; middle half -1.4% to +1.6%), and +0.6% over 20.
