# Corn and soybean prices extend losses on oversupply forecasts

> Corn and soybean futures fell after USDA's quarterly Grain Stocks report showed March 1 corn stocks at 8.347 billion bushels, a five-year high, and soybean stocks at a two-year high. Wheat stocks were at a three-year high, and USDA expects corn plantings to fall 5% in 2024. Egypt and Saudi Arabia also made wheat purchase moves.

## Why it matters

Large stocks and lower expected plantings weigh on grain prices, while the wheat tender activity offers only modest support for wheat import demand.
