The Grain Stocks report showed much higher corn stockpiles than expected, implying lower corn usage for ethanol and feed. This pushed corn prices down and helped hog profits. The Planting Intentions report estimates were close to forecasts except for soybeans, which came in below estimates. The data suggests corn acres may be shifting southward in response to yield declines from consecutive corn crops.
