“Not much has changed fundamentally since [Tuesday]. The U.S. harvest is gaining momentum with more reports of less than expected yields, mainly on corn.” Karl Setzer, partner with Consus Ag Consulting said, “Corn yields are highly variable, though, making it difficult to accurately predict overall crop size. Trade is of the belief that the U.S. corn crop will in fact be smaller than current USDA estimates, but is hesitant to adjust total production until more confirmation is seen.”
