Corn planting intentions signal large U.S. crop in 1972
Dale Shires of Bremer county extension says early USDA intentions point to a large national corn crop. Growers plan 70 million acres across 35 states, about 98 percent of production, a slight area drop but well above the five year average. Iowa aims for just under 12 million acres, down 4 percent from 1971, with further price implications if accurate.

Corn price outlook for 1973 hedging advise from Wisner
Wisner forecasts higher carryover stocks and a drop in prices in the near term due to moist corn on hand and distressed loan programs. He expects a slight recovery into May and June to around 1.06 to 1.10 in central Iowa, then weakness in July and August as farmers act on seal. Hedging options include forward contracts at 5 to 6 cents above current market or about 1.16 for April 1973 sale with storage payments.
