Nebraska soybean harvest reached 90% in the week ending November 8, slightly behind the five-year average of 93%. Corn harvest was at 74% versus an average of 84%, and sorghum harvest lagged badly at 54% against 79%.
Slow corn and sorghum harvests delay marketing of local supplies, which can modestly firm nearby cash bids. The effect on national prices is small given that Nebraska is a limited share of total output.
After 770 past neutral report events, Corn moved a median +0.2% over 5 sessions (54% higher; middle half -1.1% to +1.6%), and +0.7% over 20.
