Corn futures gained after the WASDE report, with USDA estimating corn at 14.78 billion bushels on a 180.7 bpa yield. Soybean crop estimate of 4.69 billion bushels was unchanged, and USDA raised corn exports by 75 million bushels to 2.475 billion.
A higher corn export forecast tightens domestic corn supply, supporting feed grain prices. Rising interest rates and equity selling added macro pressure on markets.
