Dropped into my inbox today. Illinois USDA end harvest production forecast - note this is a forecast based on crop area and yield as estimated by USDA, so the following is on a 'if realized basis'

Corn - highest ever yield per acre, third largest Corn harvest ever; 11million acres
Soya - highest ever yield per acre, largest ever Soya Bean harvest, 10.8million acres

Joy to be able to quote acres!!

I'm a recent convert to hectares, Hindsight but, hopefully, for just the one year only.

This is because my 2018 yields per hectare were very similar to my 2017 yields per acre.

Hopefully, this tactic will be just enough to confuse all our close-circling bankers until we eventually have some 2019 crop to deliver, with a good profit already now locked in.

Have you done any work on 2018 Potato crop in USA in respect of output ?

Think we have nearly as many empty boxes as filled boxes here.

Is there a bit of unexpected good news coming into focus for the wheat market i wonder ??
American farmers were probably planning to put a lot of WW in the ground, as a consequence of their soybean marketing problems.
For some it seems that this will be hard to execute in reality as poor / shocking weather has tied up many still mudding corn and beans out of the field..

From what I could work out price range 11 too 36 $ for 22.5 kg. Or 50 lbs.

Not really - I do occasionally look at some of the USDA data - see Brisel has put up a link.

Do have a browse occasionally. I gather the area around Great Lakes lifting is drawing to a close having experienced a difficult time in past three / four weeks with wet conditions and some early severe frosts which has led to crop loss in field - estimate I noted when reading a report earlier in the week was upto 10% of the region crop and that processors (frozen chips etc) were adjusting contracted loading dates to moving stocks into factories. Maybe a local on here who might post. Long way to transport them to UK thank goodness.

Anyway there is a potato thread elsewhere. So best desist before get scolded.

Is this a good day to sell some grain? £ weakens due to Brexit Cabinet resignations; https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-46219038

Every cloud has a silver lining...

Nothing on the grain markets yet.

I don't know whether this is being optimistic or pessimistic?????

It could go either way. We've had a lot of currency volatility whilst the sentiment of good/bad/no deal has ebbed & flowed.

It’s now nearly £30 off the high of two months ago . That’s going to take some catching up.
