The USDA's June Supply/Demand report cut the 2019 U.S. corn production estimate, with yield lowered 10 bushels to a record reduction and planted acreage down 3 million. Corn acreage was put at 89.8 million, and corn futures closed 12 cents higher, with December corn at $4.47.
Soybean and wheat futures also edged higher.
The record yield cut and smaller acreage shrink US corn supplies, which lifts feed corn costs for buyers. Soybean and meal prices firmed on the same report.
