Grain markets finished sharply lower across the board for the second day in a row as Chinese corn cancellation and an extension of the corridor encouraged heavy selling.
Grain Market News
U.S. Radar
Virtually the entire US corn and bean belt is rain free as of midday today and the rains that do fall over the next week look to be light.
7-Day Observed Precipitation
The forecast shows mostly 1-3 tenths across the majority of the belt.
Heavier rains are projected for the southern and southwestern plains.
Outlook
Warmer temperatures move south and east in the 6-10 days and continue into the 8-14 days.
We will see a dryer pattern in the eastern belt in the 6-10 and 8-14.
Soil Moisture
Soil moisture will decline between now and May 30th if the forecast is correct.
Grain Market News
Sea Surface Temperatures
Zero means that the water temperatures or sea surface temperatures are close to average.
Anything a half degree below normal is considered La Nina and anything a half degree above normal or higher is El Nino.
At this time sea surface temperatures are just now entering into the El Nino phase.
El Nino
No El Nino is created equal they all create different weather scenarios.
In general, El Nino is associated with cooler, wetter conditions across the far southern portion of the U.S.
El Nino
Cooler, wetter conditions in the south and warmer conditions in the north.
Weekly Ethanol Production
Ethanol production increased to 987 thousand barrels a day, that’s the best out of the last 4 weeks but still below the level needed.
Ethanol margins are estimated to be very profitable at this time.
When it comes to the ethanol industry the sharply lower corn market is certainly beneficial.
Our year-to-date ethanol production is slightly below the target, but we wouldn’t be surprised to see it strengthening with the favorable margins.
Weekly Stocks of Fuel Ethanol
Stocks decline seasonally, you can see a seasonal trend on stocks as we move through April/May and into June.
The good news is the current stocks at 23.198 million barrels are 2.5% below the year ago level.
May Corn Chart
Corn prices down sharply, we had been stuck in a sideways range for three weeks.
Today’s break to the downside caused very aggressive fund selling and a low of 5.54.
Wheat closed at 5.61.
The funds are now building a large short position in the market.
May Soybean Chart
Soybeans are expected to have a volatile trade this season.
Todays break down to 13.32 is a surprise that we would fall this far this quickly.
This has pushed our technical indicators back into the oversold range.
There was no sign of bottoming action today, but we will be watching the next couple of days.
May KC Wheat Chart
Wheat is almost a flip flop of 180 degrees where the market has been rising sharply the past couple of weeks.
We had a reversal today after posting a new high earlier today at 9.18. We turned around and closed at 8.85.
The trend is still upwards for wheat, but today’s reversal down was certainly a negative signal.
Grain markets finished sharply lower today as U.S. weather looks pretty good, the trend for new crop corn and beans is down, and economic data is not positive.
Grain Market News
U.S. Corn Planting Progress
Corn is at 65% complete, that is ahead of the 5-year average which is 59%.
The weather forecast looks good enough that planting should advance nicely into the low or mid 80s for next week.
U.S. Soybean Planting Progress
Soybeans are at 49% complete compared to 36% on average.
We expect next week will be in the mid to upper 60s.
Winter Wheat Conditions
Wheat was left unchanged at 29% good to excellent, which is slightly above last year’s rating.
U.S. Topsoil Moisture
As of last week, 25% of U.S. corn and bean acres were short to very short and this week that is down to 17%.
7-Day Precipitation Forecast
For nay acres that are not planted we have a relatively dry forecast across most of the belt.
If you happen to be in a dry pocket, a forecast for just one or two tenths of rain is not very much so you may be disappointed.
Grain Market News
U.S. Corn Ending Stocks
New crop ending stocks are forecast at 2.222 billion bushels, that is a huge increase from this year.
U.S. Soybean Ending Stocks
Soybeans are projected at 335, this year stocks at 215.
Nonetheless USDA is projecting a big increase in stocks next year based on record yields for soybeans this year.
U.S. Wheat Ending Stocks
Wheat shows that next year’s stocks projected at 556, this would be the 7th year in a row of a decline in wheat stocks.
Combined Stocks
USDA is projecting a significant increase above our current stock, maybe not as high as the 2016-2019 timeframe, but there will be an increase.
May Corn Chart
Corn has shown a very choppy trade over the last 3 weeks.
Mostly from $5.70-$6, so about a 30-cent trading range.
The current chart support at the lows posted 2 weeks ago at 5.69 with overhead resistance at $6.
May Soybean Chart
Soybean prices made a new low for the move today down at 13.85.
Technical indicators are back in the oversold range.
There is no sign of bottoming action, but this is no place to be making sales.
May KC Wheat Chart
Wheat rallied $1.76 in 2 weeks from the lows on May 2nd at 7.36 to the high yesterday at 9.12.
Wheat closed at 8.95.
Dryness developing in the Canadian prairies where a lot of spring wheat is grown, some dryness in Russia’s wheat crop region, as well as the question mark as to if the Ukrainian Shipping Corridor will be renewed all contributing to this big bounce.
Grain markets finished higher today, rumors that Russia may not allow the continuation of the shipping corridor supported the bounce.

14-Day Observed Precipitation
Over the last 2 weeks we have seen some good rain in the heart of the belt.
Anywhere from .5-2.5 inches has been common through much of Nebraska, Iowa, and almost all of Illinois.
We’ve seen a little bit more rain than desired in Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, and North Dakota.
There is a dry pocket from southwest Minnesota to southeast South Dakota, but they are trying to plant so that is good news.
14-Day Precipitation % of Normal
You can see the dry pocket in southern Minnesota and South Dakota which is actually okay because they are planting.
We also see the dry spot in Kansas and Missouri.
The heavy rains in the heart of t the belt have allowed us to pick up some moisture and get precipitation closer to normal in portions of Nebraska, Iowa, and Illinois.
U.S. Radar
The radar shows rain in southern Nebraska and north central Kansas.
Those areas, as long as it’s not severe, will welcome the rain.
We see some scattered showers that could delay things further north.
7-Day Precipitation Forecast
The forecast does show some rain in the far northern plains which could create some problems.
Heavy rains down in Texas moving into Oklahoma, most of that rain would be welcomed.
There is less precipitation forecast for Nebraska, Iowa, and Illinois.
Outlook
This shows warming conditions in the northwestern belt which would be good news to get planting going in North Dakota and adjacent areas.
We will be monitoring to see if dryness becomes a problem in portions of Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, and Missouri as we do have a dryer forecast long term.
May Corn Chart
Corn prices were disappointing, a sharp down day and closing down sharply as well.
The chart did look good up until yesterday, but today’s down move does need some watching as the chart could turn lower.
This hooked the technical indicator down as well.
May Soybean Chart
Soybean prices also turned lower today; they looked good up through yesterday, but today’s poor performance does turn the short term back down.
One day does not make a trend but it will be important for the market to stabilize and try to bounce in the next few days.
May KC Wheat Chart
Wheat prices actually had a very good day in KC.
Starting out the day lower and turning around and closing near the day’s high, a new high close in nearly a month.
The KC wheat chart still looks good and the technical looks good.
Grain markets finished higher today, rumors that Russia may not allow the continuation of the shipping corridor supported the bounce.

Questions or Commentstions or CoWheat prices had a massive move today challenging contract lows of $7.36 overnight last night turning around and closing at $7.85 49 cents off the daily low. This was a massive reversal to the upside, very impressive not only from the fact we closed 44-45 cents higher, but certainly shows up as a significant move on the chart turning the technical indicators up as well. Certainly the wheat market looks like it confirmation of bottoming action today.

May Corn Chart
Corn prices look very good from a short-term perspective.
Today is clearly a breakout to the upside and has the chart and technical looking good.
This area between 5.97-6.15 is a target area for corn from a char perspective in the near term.
May Soybean Chart
Soybean prices had a good day, not a clean breakout though.
We did have a new high close for the movie closing at 14.36.
The technical indicators look good as well.
If we can close above the 14.40 level, which we are close to, the next objective would be around 14.68.
May KC Wheat Chart
Wheat has exploded to the upside, trading a $1 higher in just 3 sessions.
This has improved the technical indicators as well.
The 20- and 40-day moving averages around 8.20 should provide initial support with overhead around 8.75.
