Grain Market Insight
Morning Grain Comments 3-19-2026 - The grain markets were higher overniight but corn was the only grain that did not spend some time on the lower side. The StoneX Quick Editorial (QE) this morning stated, "overnight grain volume remained strong across the board with values higher early and rallying again this morning; support for anhy fuel feedstocks remain as Middle East countries start to attach each other's energy facilities. "Risk-on" trade remains despite a fairly settled fundamental situation for the U.S. grains land oilseeds, soybean oil notwithstanding. Hot and dry weather into the end of March and start of April will have U.S. farmers thinking about sprin planting, especially with corn prices on the rise..." The export sales report this morning at 7:30 showed 46.6 million bushels of corn sales, 11.2 million bushels of soybean sales, 7.0 mb old crop wheat sales and 7.8 mb new crop wheat sales, and 500,000 bushels of milo sales. The corn sales were within the range of the pre-report trade estimates but soybeans and wheat were both below the lower end of the estimates. In world grain trade news, Jordan reportedly purchased 2.3 million bushels of barley yesterday and did tender again, and flour millers in Taiwan purchased 3.9 million bushels of milling wheat this morning from the U.S. At the end of the night session this morning, May Kansas City wheat was 3.25 cents higher, Chicago May corn was up 4.25 cents, and Chicago May soybeans were 2 cents higher. Have a wonderful day.
Early Morning Grain Comments 3-18-2026 – The night session was much calmer than we have been seeing with May soybeans to this point, only having a 12-cent trading range on both sides of Tuesday’s close but mostly to the lower side and hitting the session low just a little before 7:00 this morning. Even though the grains are all lower at this point it is no indication they will stay there. The StoneX Quick Editorial (QE) this morning stated, “the grains & oilseeds are quietly lower after a rather light volume overnight session, with front-end soybeans leading the way down as the soy complex continues to see major volatility as the trade attempts to weigh the delayed Trump/Xi meeting and dampened export prospects against the anticipated EPA policy guidance announcement…” The trade volume overnight was slightly above average, so well under what we have been seeing lately with May corn leading the way. In world grain trade news, Jordan purchased 2.2 million bushels of milling wheat in their tender for twice that amount and they announced they are tendering again for up to 4.4 million bushels this week. At about 7:00 this morning May Kansas City wheat was 1.75 cents lower, Chicago May corn was down 2 cents, and Chicago May soybeans were 7.75 cents lower. Have a wonderful day.
