September 18th, 2026 Grain prices have been mostly chopping sideways the past couple of weeks. Dec corn is 19 cents off its Sep 1st high, but still up about 60 cents from the beginning of August. Nov beans are about 30 cents off their early September high but $1.15 higher than the beginning of August. In last week's WASDE report the corn balance sheets were fairly close to expectations. Corn yield was lowered 2.2 bu/ac from August. Bean yield was increased slightly by 0.1 bu/ac, which was slightly bearish as some were expecting a reduction. Underlying support continues to be solid demand, biofuel demand is strong for both corn and beans and shouldn't be going anywhere. Exports are strong for corn and China has been active buying new crop beans. The Iran War and Russia/Ukraine War are providing support for commodities in general as well, in addition to inflation and higher interest rate environments recently which usually signal to outside investors to buy commodities. This all has the "managed money" traders near record long. This could also lead to the risk of a sharp sell off if markets turn lower. The trade will be watching harvest reports for further clues towards the crop size as well as the September 30th Grain Stocks report. Trump and China's president Xi are scheduled to meet next week which the market will be watching as well for any clues or announcements regarding Chinese grain purchases.
