Only 43% of the corn in NW Kansas was put in as of last week.. the latest start ever.. and it's rained since then.. so they may still have..??  a third or more to go which at this point..??  do you even try?

I know people have been po po'ing my 85 myn acre guess.. but there are whole operations which didn't plant a single acre of corn here.  and some that quit at 50%.. more beans than corn for the first time... ever.. ??

85 myn may be light.. but 86 to 87 tops with all the problems in the eastern belt...???


86 myn x .93 x 168 = 13.4 byn bushel crop vs 14.4 byn demand..

takes stocks down to around 1.5 byn..

I don't know what the final number is gonna be but it's gonna be alot lower than the trade estimates right now.. 60% of the corn planted vs last year here..
