February Corn & Soybean Outlook Update

Purdue ag economists Michael Langemeier, Nathanael Thompson and James Mintert discussed USDA’s February Crop Production and World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE) reports on February 10. Tight U.S. crop supplies combined with concerns about the South American harvest and prospects for big acreage swings are all on ag producers’ minds. The Purdue team reviewed updated information from USDA and other sources and discussed strategies to consider for 2021.
