Demand for ethanol lifts corn prices in new crop outlook
Washington agribusiness analysts report higher corn prices as ethanol demand grows. The Agriculture Department says corn use for ethanol may rise 34 percent to 2.15 billion bushels, while winter wheat output is seen at 1.32 billion bushels, down 12 percent. Drought across Texas and the central Great Plains trims yields to about 42.2 bushels per acre, with wheat at 3.50 to 4.10 per bushel and corn at 2.25 to 2.65 per bushel as buyers expand both domestic and foreign demand. Storage of corn is also expected to shrink to half of last year's levels.
