Higher Feed Costs To Boost Beef Price
A sharply reduced corn crop will lift livestock feed costs and push beef and hog prices higher by mid 1984. The Agriculture Department forecast average corn prices at $2.95 to $3.20 per bushel for 1983-84, with farm prices around $2.65 this year. Cattle and hog prices are seen rising as red meat production remains above last year into winter, then easing in late 1984. hog profitability is squeezed by high feed costs, while broiler turkey prices are also expected to rise.

White Corn Marketing Shapes The Grain Trade In 1980s
Kansas City traders describe white corn as a niche crop with erratic pricing since no futures exist and government reports mix it with yellow corn. Demand remains small, premiums over yellow vary, and PIK payments influence planting decisions. South Africa's drought alters export prospects while U.S. production stays around 30 million bushels.
