Grain and Provisions Outlook Traced in Illinois Iowa Corn Deficit

Illinois and Iowa corn production this year falls 301,000,000 bushels from last year, while Nebraska Kansas and nearby states show a 303,000,600 bushel gain. Market moves reflect these shifts with corn futures down 3% to 5% week over week and Gulf export bids rising despite domestic declines. Wheat slips modestly as oats stay above last season’s disappearance, and provisions hold steady with lard cheaper than substitutes.

Butter and poultry markets reflect seasonal shifts and imports

The report notes New Zealand butter entering via the Panama Canal for American use as ships head to New York, with delivered prices around 47 cents after duty. It also highlights a heavy poultry movement during Christmas week, leading to continued oversupply, discounts on spring roosters, and a likely storage buildup for dressed turkeys. Eggs lack buoyancy amid late-season demand and uncertain value levels.

Weekly Butter Review Signals Rising Production

Butter production is rising with more liberal receipts not solely from delayed shipments. Some factories show increased output while others lag, indicating cows are freshening and a general rise in production is expected soon. Increased out-of-storage movement boosts buying interest among operators.
