Get ready for the price fireworks in 4 minutes (-:
Easy to tell the report was pretty BULLISH!
More in a short while
Mega bullish surprise for corn...........and with funds having a near record short. If we have a dome that parks over the cornbelt in July.......prices have tremendous upside potential.

U.S. #corn acres seen at 92 mln, down 5 mln from March intentions. #Soybeans up less than expected and #wheat acres are down from March.
U.S. all #wheat area is down 1% from March intentions. Acres rose from March in North Dakota, making it the top wheat planter this year. Plantings were lower than in March for Kansas and Montana, the #2 and #3 states.
Didn't see that coming !
Your crop just increased in value by a very large amount!
Congrats, let's hope it continues.
Analysts had their worst miss of June 1 #corn stocks since 2011, as they were 273 mln bushels too low heading into Tuesday's reports. But the price action followed acres, which the trade over-guessed by the largest amount since at least 2005.
U.S. #corn plantings fell by 5.1% between USDA's March and June surveys. That is by far the largest move in either direction in the Freedom to Farm era (1996-present). That decline tops 1995 (-4.4%) and is the largest for March-June since 1983 (-13.6%).
