Price Of Corn To Be Lower In 1947 Market
Farmers face lower prices as storage for grain grows makeshift and government loans harder to obtain. Current rules require sealed on-farm storage for loan eligibility, causing many growers to miss protections. December corn in Chicago trades around 1.453 per bushel, about 16 cents below the support level. The 1947 crop is expected near 3.5 billion bushels, signaling a large year with significant contrasts to last year’s bumper Washington County crop.
