Since all the so called know it all private firms missed the corn number by a country mile, why don't you round some of them up and have answer a panel of questions from the folks here on the site.........

Least they could do is tell us what kind of pot they where smoking when they printed their numbers

[marketeye]

How about a google meet-up? I think I could gather some of them and present the panel in Marketing Talk. I like your idea, Mizzou_Tiger.

Let's see what we can do.

Or USDA missed the corn number - we'll know at harvest time.

I doubt it will be know at harvest time. With all due respect, the govt can drag things out however long they see fit. The hundreds of millions of bushels that have been lost and found in the past testify to that.

Tiger, the tigerland corn crop has to be a monster if you have enough N out there. I walked several fields yesterday, the 3 weeks of dry hurt the clay rocky spots, but the spots with good/average  soil are very good.

I'm sure mt would just start a screaming match, much like a small child does with a parent.

They had better schedutle it at an hour when he is least likely to have been in the sauce.

Weren't a lot of them within 1-3 bushels?  I don't think I'd consider missing by .5% to 2% off by a country mile.  I think this crop will get a little bigger and your estimate of 12.8 billion will be off by a billion bushels.  That is much closer to country mile territory in my opinion.

I hope I am wrong and we see a rally this winter/next spring.

What's wrong guys......do you feel threatened or what......all you guys do is follow me around and post nonsense with zero content trying to take jabs at me........

Neither of you post anything constructive.......

If I'm a loon then why do you follow me around and waste the effort..........I feel like I should be wearing a T-shirt with the words IM WITH STUPID that has a huge arrow pointing at you two clowns

Wanna be constructive answer me this........

Corn at dough stage this week is 54%

Corn at dough stage in 2013 for this week was 30%

Corn at dough stage in 2004 for this week was 42%

Seems like something doesn't jive with maturity and ear weights especially if we are supposed to be behind 2013 in maturity and 2004 was an early spring by at least month

Crops hammering along pretty quick for a late start compared to 2004 and 2013.

So what's ur take on this. Fast grain fill equals less bushels

So someone is not telling the truth?
