All trade estimates for USDA's reports due Thursday at 11 am CST. No changes are expected this month for U.S. corn and soybean harvests, but a fresh estimate of the 2020 cotton crop should be coming.

USDA cut the 2020 U.S. #cotton crop by 6.7% from November, and that was all on yield. This year's harvest was 20% smaller than in 2019 and is the smallest crop in 5 years. Market participants had a pretty good idea that a cut was likely this month.

This map is from USDA/NASS's executive briefing, showing where #cotton yields declined from the previous month. Yields fell in most states, though the drop was most pronounced in Texas and Louisiana.
