Barchart announces its initial 2021 Yield and Production forecasts for U.S. corn and soybeans, which both indicate downside risk to the USDA’s projected figures from May’s WASDE report.

“Throughout the 2020 growing season, we provided commodity buyers, ag lenders, and crop marketers with timely U.S. production and yield forecasts before each official USDA crop production forecast each month,” says Barchart CEO Mark Haraburda. “Our initial 2021 forecasts suggest potential downside for both corn and soybean production relative to USDA numbers, and we’re pleased to provide these insights to the public.”

“Users can access Barchart’s national forecasts through our public monthly release; our national and state forecasts via the free bi-weekly U.S. Crop Production report, or daily updates of national, state, district, and county-level forecasts in cmdtyView,” added Haraburda. “Starting in July, they will also be able to view crop production and yield forecasts for Canada, providing public access to the entire North American supply side of grain.”
