U.S. Sept. 1 corn stocks land above all trade estimates, while soybeans and wheat fall below the average guess.
USDA revises the 2025 U.S. corn crop lower by 57 million bushels after reviewing the Sept. 1 stocks survey results. Yield was unchanged, but acres were lower.
.S. farmers in 2026 harveted their smallest wheat crop since 1970, according to USDA. Winter wheat production landed above all pre-report trade estimates, though it was still the lowest since 1965. Spring wheat output landed below all estimates, at a five-year low.
