Crop Progress showed that corn is 62% planted vs a 60% estimate and 56% 5-year average. The crop is 28% emerged vs 21% average. Indonesia’s Central Statistics Agency is forecasting 2025 corn production to rise 12.88% from last year to 8.07 MMT. Corn made a reversal lower yesterday and is challenging last week’s lows this morning.
