Crop Report October 19, 2023 – More Corn was Planted and More Corn was Harvested.

This article is based primarily on the October 17, 2023, USDA Crop Bulletin which covers the week ending October 15, 2023.  The full USDA Crop Bulletin can be accessed HERE

It is back to looking like an average crop or perhaps even a bit less than average. But there is lots of corn which is usually more profitable than soybeans.

This article includes a short international review of agricultural conditions which are generally favorable. I also included U.S. crop-related weather forecasts. And there is a report on production forecasts. It is a long report and we show the Table of Contents, a summary of key points, and the link to the full report.

We first take a look at the frost/Freeze and other warnings.

Now on to the National Agriculture Summary.  The Tables below the summary have additional data. The boxes with my comments may be incomplete so for crops of interest check the data out yourself to be sure.
