US Soybean and Wheat Crops To Increase in 2008
04.01.08
U.S. farmers will plant more soybean and wheat this year after prices reached record highs, while corn and cotton acres will drop, the U.S. Department of Agriculture reports.
Growers will seed 74.8 million acres with soybeans, up 18% from last year, the USDA said today in a report. Spring-wheat planting will jump 7.8%, as corn acreage drops 8.1%.
The USDA forecasts sent corn futures to a record high on the Chicago Board of Trade, while soybean and wheat prices plunged.
Increased soybean and wheat planting may help refill dwindling inventories, while declining corn output may squeeze supplies available for ethanol makers, including Archer Daniels Midland Co. Prices for most farm commodities reached records this year on booming demand for food, fuel and animal feed.
