Market Commentary 9/23/2026     

December corn settled 7¾¢ lower at $5.2900, March corn lost 7½¢ to $5.4350, and November soybeans fell 7½¢ to $13.1800. Harvest pressure and pre-summit positioning weighed on the market: USDA reported corn harvest at 13% complete versus the 11% average and soybean harvest at 12% versus 8%, while a stronger dollar added a headwind ahead of tomorrow’s Trump-Xi meeting. USDA’s fresh 3.9-million-bushel corn sale to Mexico provided only limited support. Corn also absorbed weaker ethanol demand after production dropped 6.5%, implying roughly 106 million bushels of weekly corn grind—about 7 million fewer than the prior week. China’s latest state-reserve soybean auction encouraged hopes that storage is being cleared for additional U.S. purchases, but no new large sale was confirmed and traders remained cautious before the summit. November crude was up $2.13 at $92.65, yet December soybean oil settled 0.11¢ lower at 67.81¢ per pound, so energy provided no meaningful support to soybeans. Have a great day!
