Corn Price Recovery Weighs on Export Shifts In US
Iowa State economist Bob Wisner notes corn prices have steadied near last year despite limited farmer sales and weather worries. He warns a few shifts including an unusual destination pattern could ease exports later this spring and summer. Netherlands imports rose 92 percent, Japan fell 26 percent, and Russia and others reduced intake. Domestic demand remains the key, with cattle and hog stocks down and USDA data due April 24. Offsetting positives include weaker Western European grain prospects and possible reduced Russian carryover. New Iowa Polled Hereford leaders named for 1975 show at Ak-Sar-Ben July 22-24.
