Afternoon Grain Comments 9-11-2026 – Corn slipped today after the USDA's numbers came in right about where traders were guessing, and that gave the big funds a reason to take some profits off the table. The national yield came down 2.2 bushels an acre to 178.5, with most of that drop showing up out west in the Corn Belt, plus a little more out of Illinois and Indiana. The StoneX Market Intelligence (MI) looked at the old saying that once the corn crop drops from August to September, "it drops through the end of the year," and found that it only holds up some of the time, so a lower September number doesn't guarantee the final yield keeps sliding. The USDA also nudged up the export forecast, and today's export sales beat expectations, though total commitments are still running behind last year's pace. Beans didn't get much of a surprise either. The yield came in just a touch higher than August instead of the drop some were bracing for, but the leftover supply still tightened up because the USDA raised how many beans we're expected to ship overseas, landing at 310 million bushels, down from both last month and last year. Export sales were strong today, China grabbed a big chunk of that total, and the US is now running well ahead of where it was on total bean sales at this time last year. Wheat barely got touched by the USDA today. Traders wanted to see more from the Russia-Ukraine fighting show up in the numbers, but the agency didn't move much. The real story with wheat isn't that the grain sitting in Russia and Ukraine has disappeared, it's that it can't get moved. MI described that stuck supply as simply "trapped and immobile," which lets other countries pick up some of the export business without actually changing how much wheat is out there in the world. A little extra supply out of Australia, Argentina and Canada helped offset that. Our own wheat sales keep struggling too, running well behind both last week and a year ago, with total commitments sitting at just 42 percent of this year's export forecast versus 51 percent a year ago. At the close today, cash corn was down 4 cents cash wheat was down 21 cents, and cash beans were down 36 cents. Have a great weekend.


Morning Grain Comments 9-11-2026 – There isn’t a lot of news this morning but it is report day with the WASDE scheduled for release at 11:00 so it could be interesting.  The grains were lower late in the session with corn trading lower throughout the session while wheat and soybeans traded both sides of Thursday’s closes, but just barely with wheat only a tic higher at the open then trading lower through the rest of the session.  The StoneX Quick Editorial (QE) this morning stated, “trade volume remained slow again last night as WTI crude oil came off $100+/bbl highs; that didn't stop November soybeans from hit-ting a fresh contract high, as China continues to purchase U.S. soybeans and add to strong overall demand there, ahead of the USDA Sept S&D today…”  The holiday delayed export sales report this morning showed corn sales of 75.9 million bushels, soybean sales of 96.9 mb, wheat sales of 7.1 mb and 450,000 bushels of milo sales.  At the end of the night session at 7:45 this morning Kansas City December wheat was 3.5 cents lower, Chicago December corn down 3.75 cents, and Chicago November soybeans were 10.75 cents lower.  Have a wonderful day and weekend.
