Corn stocks came in much higher than trade estimates anticipated, causing fund liquidation that spilled over into the soybeans and wheat futures. Wheat production was raised slightly, but the report was overall neutral for wheat and soybeans. Cattle futures ended the day higher, with expectations that packers need more cattle to make up for last week's interrupted kill. Arlan Suderman with Stone X Financial recaps today's trade.

This edition of *Commodity Week*, hosted by Todd Gleason, features market analysts Arlan Suderman, Dave Chatterton, and Ted Seifried evaluating current grain marketing dynamics, harvest progress, and geopolitical trade developments. The panel examines the recent US-China summit, anticipating official details regarding China's 25-million-metric-ton soybean commitment, proposed agricultural tariff exemptions, and a $17 billion purchase agreement. Discussion also covers yield projections, with Suderman modeling the national corn yield at 181.1 bushels per acre amidst harvest-related basis pressure and tight global shipping logistics. Chatterton highlights fuel price volatility and reminds producers of upcoming crop insurance and Farm Bill ARC/PLC deadlines. Finally, Seifried previews the September 30 USDA Grain Stocks report, projecting steady carryover figures, and advises utilizing synthetic puts to lock in profitable cash sales while maintaining upside exposure to potential early 2027 South American weather risks.Panelists- Arlan Suderman, StoneX- Dave Chatterton, Strategic Farm Marketing- Ted Seifried, Zaner Ag Hedge ★ Support this podcast ★

The July 16 edition of Commodity Week, hosted by Todd Gleason from the National Association of Farm Broadcasting (NAFB) Summer Showcase in Kansas City, Missouri, features agricultural analysts Mike Zuzolo of GlobalCommResearch.com and Arlan Suderman of StoneX. The program delves into deep macroeconomic and geopolitical parallels between the current market environment and the 1980s, highlighting how shifts in Chinese demand and escalating global conflicts, particularly new drone-driven disruptions in the Black Sea, are altering international grain and energy trade. The panel examines the operational complexities of domestic biofuel policies, such as the 45Z tax credit and RVO programs, noting that while soybean crushing remains robust, older biomass diesel plants are facing maintenance and cash flow limitations due to delayed regulatory guidelines. Looking ahead to the fall harvest, the experts advise grain producers to carefully monitor regional basis swings, look past short-term fund-driven market volatility, and proactively manage risk by securing early pricing protections.Panelists  - Mike Zuzolo, Global Commodity Analytics and Consulting  - Arlan Suderman, StoneX ★ Support this podcast ★

The June 25 edition of Commodity Week featured analysis from Arlan Suderman of StoneX, Curt Kimmel of AgMarket .net, and Greg Johnson of Total Grain Marketing. The panel evaluated the impending June 30 USDA acreage and quarterly grain stocks reports, noting that these figures, alongside developing weather patterns, will establish the primary direction for the markets. Expectations for corn acreage generally reflect a slight decrease from March intentions, while soybean acreage is anticipated to be marginally higher.Weather remains a dominant factor as the corn crop approaches its critical July pollination window. Elevated temperatures will accelerate growing degree days, but sustained heat combined with high overnight temperatures could negatively impact final yields. The panel also highlighted specific agronomic risks moving into the latter half of the summer. These include the eastward drift of smoke from western wildfires and the potential for southern mold spores to increase disease pressure, making fungicide application decisions crucial for producers this season (CropProtectionNetwork.org).Significant uncertainty persists regarding international trade commitments on the demand side. The market is closely monitoring China's purchasing pace to determine if the nation will meet its stated targets by the end of the calendar year. Additionally, potential agricultural shipments to Iran, facilitated by the use of frozen assets, represent another unresolved variable that could substantially tighten the overall balance sheet. Until these international demand factors and late-season weather impacts are clarified, producers are exhibiting notable reluctance to make new crop sales at current price levels.Panelists - Greg Johnson, Total Grain Marketing - Curt Kimmel, AgMarket.net - Arlan Suderman, StoneX ★ Support this podcast ★
