# Corn Prices Show Lackluster Response to Smaller Crop

> The November USDA reports cut the U.S. corn crop to 14.63 billion bushels, down 152 million from October, with yield at 178.9 bushels per acre, below pre-report estimates. The report also revised Chinese corn data and some domestic consumption categories, and corn prices did not respond to the smaller crop.

## Why it matters

A smaller crop that fails to lift prices shows ample stocks and weak market reaction, so feed buyers face limited near-term price support for corn.
