Corn Posts Tuesday Losses as Crop Tour Pushes Along

Corn futures closed out the Tuesday session with contracts down 3 to 4 cents, as the market tries to digest some of the current boots on the ground data. The CmdtyView national average Cash Corn price was down 3 1/4 cents at $3.62 1/2.

The annual ProFarmer crop tour started on Monday, with the Ohio crop pegged at 185.69 bpa, up from 183.29 bpa last year and the 180.47 3-year average. USDA is looking for a 19 bpa increase yr/yr. Yield in South Dakota was estimated at 174.18 bpa, which is up 17.67 bpa from last year’s tour total and well 30.05 bpa above the 3-year average. USDA was looking for a 4 bpa increase from last year in last Tuesday’s report. Results for NE and IN will be announced tonight.
