The Brazil corn and soybean harvest has begun, providing a better look at that country’s critical production potential. USDA will update its estimates in the February WASDE report, adjusting U.S. export targets accordingly. Look for USDA to also make adjustments to U.S. export targets based on its perception of China’s anticipated buying following the signing of the phase-one trade deal in January. I’ll take a look at USDA’s numbers, while also looking at expected acreage and growing conditions for the Midwest this spring and summer in the February webinar.
