The USDA released its first estimate today of the corn and soybean harvest based on actual field inspections. Farmers say their crops look good, but a lot of things can happen between now and harvest. Warmer temperatures and more rain are needed. The good crop prospects also have a down side. Grain prices have fallen sharply the past few months. Bruce Gustafson Bruce Gustafson farms near Hanley Falls in southwest Minnesota. Standing in a soybean field, Gustafson sizes up his harvest prospects.

News section U.S. weekly corn and soybean outlook: soybean crops Urbana, Illinois June 20, 2005 As corn and soybean prices move higher, it is useful to try to estimate the U.S. crop size that is reflected by current prices, said a University of Illinois Extension marketing specialist. "Obviously, a precise estimate cannot be made because other factors are influencing price," said Darrel Good. "In addition, the relationship between the crop size, consumption, and price varies over time. Still, the prospective crop size is a useful question to pursue." Good's comments came as he discussed recent developments in the corn and soybean markets, where prices continue to move higher in anticipation of yield reductions due to adverse weather conditions in the United States. "Soybean prices are also being supported by indications that acreage in the United States fell short of March intentions, by crop concerns in China and India, and by a rapid rate of consumption of the 2004 crop," he noted. "Corn price strength has been much more modest than the increase in soybean prices due to large current stocks and indications that U.S. acreage exceeded March intentions."

News section Researchers take on new threat to soybean crops: the ‘omega strain' of soybean cyst nematode Carbondale, Illinois January 21, 2005 When an evil, all-powerful Worm ravages the countryside, a small band of adventurers sets out to seek the Magic Sword that will undo the monster. While it might sound like the plot for an epic film with great special effects, it is in fact the essence of an ongoing quest at Southern Illinois University Carbondale aimed at defeating the soybean cyst nematode, the chief cause of soybean crop loss not just in the Midwest but the world. Supported by funds from the United Soybean Board, SIUC biotechnologist David A. Lightfoot and his research team — sometimes with scientists from other universities, sometimes alone — have been looking for the gene or genes that could make soybeans completely resistant to SCN, as the nematode is commonly known. That search has taken on new urgency in the face of what Lightfoot calls the "Omega Strain" of SCN. "It's a biotype that can attack and defeat all our resistance sources," Lightfoot said.

University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign see more in: SUBSCRIBE to ACES News Weekly Outlook: Corn, Soybean Crops Published: Aug. 8, 2005 Source: Darrel Good, (217) 333-4716 URBANA - The 2005 corn and soybean crops will be small enough that year-ending stocks will likely be reduced significantly during the year ahead, said a University of Illinois Extension marketing specialist. Will the crops be large enough to allow consumption to continue at the current record pace, or will production be small enough to require a reduction in use? "The prospects of reduced inventories should result in higher corn and soybean prices during the 2005-06 marketing year than the prices experienced during the current year. However, the increase may be modest unless the crops are small enough to require rationing," said Darrel Good. In the case of corn, a modest decline in use of U.S. crops was required in the 2002-03 marketing year due to a crop of just under 9 billion bushels, Good said. Prior to that year, the most recent year of a significant shortfall in U.S. production was in 1995, resulting in a record low ending stocks-to-use ratio and record high prices. For the 2005-06 U.S. corn marketing year, the USDA projects total use of corn at 10.67 billion bushels, about equal to use during the current year, Good said. That projection includes a 7 percent increase in exports and a 7 percent increase in the domestic processing use of corn. Feed and residual use is expected to decline by nearly 5 percent (300 million bushels). That decline implies that residual use during the current year is significantly inflated, likely due to an overestimate of the size of the 2004 crop.

Mike Smith, Henderson County Cooperative Extension Agent By Laura Skillman OWENSBORO, KY. (June 28, 2000) A study being conducted in fields in Daviess and Henderson counties is trying to help grain farmers determine when to start, how much to apply, and when to stop using their center pivot irrigation. "Basically, we started this project as a reaction to last year's drought," said Wayne Mattingly, Daviess County Extension Agent for Agriculture and Natural Resources. "What we saw were a lot of farmers using center pivots, but they were very haphazard about how they used it." When farmers were asked why they irrigated and how much they applied, few had any real answers.

Kentucky Corn, Soybean Crops Fare Well in 2003 “I figured we would have a good crop and knew portions of the state would have record yields because of the early plantings but others would not. But as the season progressed, overall we had very favorable weather and that’s the reason for the good yields in corn and soybeans.” Jim Herbek, UK Extension grain crops specialist By Laura Skillman PRINCETON, Ky. (Nov. 26, 2003) – Kentucky grain farmers enjoyed a year of record and near-record production on their soybean and corn crops despite a rocky start. A wet spring resulted in some cornfields having to be replanted, while planting was delayed in other fields. It also was a challenge trying to apply fertilizer and making timely spray applications. Luckily, weather conditions later in the season proved to be more cooperative, landing Kentucky farmers in a much better position than they expected in the spring. “Throughout the growing season I swayed back and forth about how good the crop was going to be,” said Jim Herbek, a grain crops specialist with the University of Kentucky College of Agriculture. “First of all, we got a very early start on corn. Almost a fourth of the crop was planted by mid April, then it was slowed by wetness.” About 20 percent of the corn crop was planted after the date generally considered optimal for attaining maximum yields, he said.

NCDC Climate Monitoring Climate Indices / CMSI / Search Help Crop Moisture Stress Index View Data Index Overview Crop Moisture Stress Index Imagery Corn Moisture Stress Index Soybean Moisture Stress Index Index Overview The Moisture Stress Index for corn and soybean crops is a measure of the effects of drought and catastrophic wetness on national crop yield and is calculated through the use of a drought index (the Palmer Z Index) and annual average crop productivity values within each U.S. climate division. Moisture stress, either a lack or an abundance of soil moisture during critical phases of the crop growth and development cycle, affects US average crop yield, particularly when moisture stress occurs in the most highly productive crop growing areas. Soil moisture conditions in July and August were found to be the best indicators of average crop yield for corn and soybeans, and as such, are used in creating the Moisture Stress Index. Calculations of the Moisture Stress Index are based on (1) the extent of severe to catastrophic drought or catastrophic wetness within the crop growing regions, i.e., those climate divisions with a Z Index value less than or equal to -2 or Z Index greater than or equal to +5, and (2) the average annual crop productivity* of each climate division within the crop growing region. Figure 1 is an example of short-term soil moisture conditions as measured by the monthly Palmer Z Index, while figures 2 and 3 show the 10-year average crop productivity values within the crop and soybean growing regions respectively.

Results of the protein and oil test can be viewed below. Seasonal Summary: The quality of a soybean crop is determined by both the environment where the soybeans are grown and the genetic makeup of the varieties produced. Unfortunately, northern and western areas of the Corn Belt produce lower protein and or oil soybeans than areas to the south and east. Furthermore, as more acres of soybeans are produced in Northwestern Minnesota and North Dakota, the average protein and oil levels of soybeans produced in these states will decline. What can you do? Producers must begin to examine composition information while making variety selections for the following year. However, selection based on composition should occur only after a group of high-yielding soybeans with the correct defensive package has been identified. Higher protein and oil levels will do no good, if the variety fails to produce the best yield possible. Please visit the for more information.
