# WASDE Report Prints Bearish Soybean Data, Sends Market Reeling

> USDA's October WASDE raised the 2021 U.S. corn yield to 176.5 bushels per acre and soybean yield by nearly 1 bushel, with production and ending stocks well above trade expectations. Corn production came in 71 million bushels above Dow Jones pre-report estimates, and wheat ending stocks fell by 35 million bushels. Corn and soybean futures sold off sharply after the release.

## Why it matters

Larger-than-expected U.S. corn and soybean supplies and higher ending stocks weigh on feed and oilseed meal prices, while the smaller wheat carryout supports wheat values that compete with corn in rations.
