Each month the Center will host a free webinar providing an update on the corn and soybean outlook following release of USDA’s monthly Crop Production and World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE) reports. The webinars will review the USDA reports and provide implications for the current and upcoming crop year. Corn and soybean exports, ethanol demand, corn and soybean basis, and farm income projections will also be regular topics.

The next outlook is Friday, August 12th, 2022. Purdue ag economists Michael Langemeier, Nathanael Thompson and James Mintert will discuss the August USDA reports released as a Purdue AgCast podcast episode.
