Prices Prices have risen with the temperatures.

Crop Conditions Source: USDA-NASS But dry conditions have weakened the crops, as the crop conditions show. The USDA update reflects the scale of yield loss as they have taken over 40 bushels from corn and nearly 8 bushels from soybeans. Source: USDA-NASS

Corn Harvested Acre Adjustments USDA has accounted for some loss in corn harvested due to silage chopping and abandonment. Next month’s update will likely show more acres being lost.

Projected Corn Yields These are based on conditions around Aug. 1.

Objective Corn Yield Data USDA crop adjusters found grain weights well below those for the last 8 years. Source: USDA-NASS

World Corn Production Source: USDA-WAOB Global corn production took a hit last month, with Canada, Europe, and the former Soviet Union all seeing reductions in potential corn production. Source: USDA-WAOB 8 8

Hog Crush Margin The Crush Margin is the return after the pig, corn and soybean meal costs. Carcass weight: 200 pounds Pig price: 50% of 5 mth out lean hog futures Corn: 10 bushels per pig Soybean meal: 150 pounds per pig Projected hog margins are well south of breakeven. Source: ISU Extension

U.S. Meat Production & Prices Higher feed costs have led to lower meat production projections. Source: USDA-WAOB 10 10

Iowa Corn Prices vs. Costs For those that have a crop, corn margins have exploded.

Thoughts for 2012 and Beyond Supply/demand concerns We got some rain, too little, too late Biofuel growth and energy demand, RFS? Will supply be able to keep pace with demand? Drought is pulling supply down But high prices are diminishing demand General economic conditions Continued worldwide economic recovery is a key for crop prices US job recovery, European financial concerns, China? 2012/13: USDA: Corn $8.20; Soy $16.00 Futures (as of 8/24/12): Corn $7.49; Soy $15.87 2013/14: Futures Corn $6.07; Soy $12.62 2014/15: Futures Corn $5.55; Soy $12.15
