USDA Releases May WASDE Report

- This report follows updated forecasts showing a 5 percent increase in corn planted acres to 95.3 million and 83.5 million acres for soybeans, with yield and harvested acreage raised accordingly.
- The wheat forecast indicates a rise in available quantities, a slight increase in domestic consumption, a decline in exports, and a season-average farm price that is expected to drop by 20 cents to $5.30 per bushel.
- Corn production is projected at 15.82 billion bushels with a $4.20 per bushel price down 15 cents, while soybean production is forecast at 4.34 billion bushels with a $10.25 price above last year's $9.95.
- These mixed supply and demand changes indicate ample crop supplies with reduced exports and slightly higher domestic use, which may place downward pressure on prices and affect farm income variability.
