Breaking Down the WASDE Report | 10/12/24 Nebraska Soybean Board Weekly Market Roundup

The Friday WASDE report didn’t bring any major surprises, but there were a few key takeaways worth noting. On this week's Nebraska Soybean Board Weekly Market Roundup, we hear from Kyle Bumsted with Allendale and David Ericson with Ag Optimist. Corn yield numbers came in close to expectations, though some believe they could still be adjusted in future reports. Soybean yield estimates also appeared reasonable, but the market will keep a close eye on how weather impacts final numbers. U.S. ending stocks were in line with projections, though global ending stocks raised a few eyebrows, particularly with ongoing challenges in key growing regions. Meanwhile, in the cattle market, heavier weighted cattle are impacting trade, with the north moving on steady numbers before any activity in the south.
