Took a 200 mile drive to return some sweet corn seed today
My WAG on corn and bean planting on the acres I saw
!st off the area arounf our farm seems to be as good as any. Ours and neighbours fields
We range from 4" to rows filled in in this area
On our trip I would estimate Corn:
5 % planted in May
10 % planted in June
5 % PP
Soybeans
0 % planted in May
85 % planted in June with planting still in progress
15 % PP
Perhaps that explains why our basis is currently $2.65 over Deec. 2019 for Sept 2019 delivery
Golly what will our price be come 2020 delivery
There simply is no 2019 corn to speak of, planted, in Ontario
If there is any more corn it has not emerged
I would think less than 500 acres had rows even close to filled in, on the route we took
Thanks Wayne!
Nice to get a report from an area not covered by the USDA or anybody else here.
