COMIDRA Corn Index
Evaluated (UTC): — · Price date: —
Historical reconstruction using the latest published data; not a real-time historical record.
- This 0–100 score summarizes selected inputs relative to their own history. Higher values indicate more upward pressure. Input composition differs by commodity; some scores use inventories only.
- Coverage is the available share of configured input weights, not prediction accuracy. Below 60%, the current score is not shown. Price is for comparison, not an index input.
- History is recalculated using the latest published data, not the exact information known at each past date. This is a descriptive indicator, not a validated or guaranteed price forecast.
- A futures curve compares prices for contracts with different delivery months at the same point in time. It reflects current market pricing and carrying conditions, not a guaranteed forecast of future spot prices.
- An upward line means the reported price increased over that interval. It does not show whether the price is high or low relative to supply and demand, or predict the next move.
- Use this indicator together with supply, demand and broader economic conditions. One chart alone cannot reliably predict the next price move.
CFTC Corn Futures Positions (Speculative)
- CFTC (U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission) is the U.S. regulator that publishes futures-market trader-position data.
- The Non-Commercials (Long/Short) chart shows the size of buy (long) and sell (short) positions held by big players who trade mainly for investment. If longs increase, it generally means more traders expect prices to rise; if shorts increase, it generally means more traders expect prices to fall.
- Use this indicator together with supply, demand and broader economic conditions. One chart alone cannot reliably predict the next price move.
CFTC Corn Futures Positions (Managed Money)
- CFTC (U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission) is the U.S. regulator that publishes futures-market trader-position data.
- The Managed Money (Long/Short) chart focuses only on professional managers such as funds/hedge funds within those big players. It helps you see more clearly whether the “core money” moving the market is leaning bullish (more longs) or bearish (more shorts).
- Use this indicator together with supply, demand and broader economic conditions. One chart alone cannot reliably predict the next price move.
- LME, SHFE, CME/COMEX, CBOT and ICE are commodity exchanges; their prices, contracts or warehouse stocks cover exchange systems rather than the whole physical market.
- Stocks or inventories are quantities held at the locations covered by the source. Changes can reflect production, consumption, trade or differences in reporting coverage.
- A rising inventory means more material was reported in storage. The reason may involve production, demand, trade or changes in reporting coverage.
- Before comparing changes, check the unit, reporting period, region and whether recent values may be revised.
- This chart compares production, use or processing volumes during the stated period. Each series should be read using its own unit and reporting frequency.
- A higher line or bar means a larger reported amount. It does not by itself explain the cause or show whether the change is favorable.
- Before comparing changes, check the unit, reporting period, region and whether recent values may be revised.
- USDA NASS (National Agricultural Statistics Service) is the USDA agency, report or database that publishes agricultural production, supply, price or trade information.
- Planted: Share of acreage where seeds have been placed in the ground. Silking: Share of acreage where silk-like strands have emerged from the tips of the ears. Dough: Share of acreage in the dough stage, when kernels contain a thick, dough-like substance. Dented: Share of acreage where all kernels are fully dented, the ear is firm and solid, and most kernels no longer contain milk. Mature: Share of acreage considered safe from frost and nearly ready for harvest, with husks opening and no green foliage present. Harvested: Share of acreage where the crop has been cut, threshed, or otherwise gathered from the field. US – Corn Crop Conditions Ratio Good to Excellent: Combined share of U.S. corn acreage rated Good or Excellent.
- Season, weather and marketing-year timing matter, so compare the same stage or reporting week across years.
- EIA (U.S. Energy Information Administration) is the public or international system that publishes energy, nuclear or climate data used in this chart.
- Corn ethanol is a biofuel made from corn and used mainly by blending it with gasoline. In the chart, the blue line (production) generally stays above the orange line (consumption), which means corn ethanol supply in the U.S. market has remained relatively stable.
- Before comparing changes, check the unit, reporting period, region and whether recent values may be revised.

FAS Corn Net Sales
Annual Net Sales by Week
- USDA FAS (Foreign Agricultural Service) is the USDA agency, report or database that publishes agricultural production, supply, price or trade information.
- Net sales are new export bookings after cancellations and adjustments; they are sales commitments, not physical shipments.
- The lower panel aligns weekly net sales by calendar week, helping compare seasonal booking patterns across years.
- USDA FAS (Foreign Agricultural Service) is the USDA agency, report or database that publishes agricultural production, supply, price or trade information.
- Because export inspections are released before export volume data, investors can view them as an early signal of whether exports are actually moving. The export volume data released later can then be understood as an indicator that confirms whether that trend turned into actual results.
- Before comparing changes, check the unit, reporting period, region and whether recent values may be revised.
- USDA FAS (Foreign Agricultural Service) is the USDA agency, report or database that publishes agricultural production, supply, price or trade information.
- This chart shows U.S. corn sales that have already been contracted but not yet shipped. A higher level means more export volume is still waiting to go out, while a lower level can mean shipments have moved out or fewer new contracts are building up.
- Before comparing changes, check the unit, reporting period, region and whether recent values may be revised.
- USDA FAS (Foreign Agricultural Service) is the USDA agency, report or database that publishes agricultural production, supply, price or trade information.
- This chart shows how many U.S. corn export contracts are coming in for next season. A higher value means buyers are purchasing more of next season’s supply in advance, while a lower value means pre-orders are lighter.
- Before comparing changes, check the unit, reporting period, region and whether recent values may be revised.
USDA U.S. Corn Stocks: On-Farm and Off-Farm
USDA U.S. Corn Stocks: On-Farm and Off-Farm. USDA NASS means the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Agricultural Statistics Service. This survey measures physical corn stocks on the reference date. Stacked bars split the total between farms and commercial or other off-farm facilities. The total line equals those two parts and must not be added again. Stocks are measured around March 1, June 1, September 1 and December 1. Because harvest creates strong seasonality, compare the same quarter across years. Wheel/Pinch=Zoom · Drag=Box zoom · Alt+Drag/Arrows=Pan · Double-click=Reset

Corn: U.S. production value and costs
Corn: U.S. production value and costs. USDA ERS is the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Economic Research Service. It estimates nationwide crop production value and costs per planted acre; one acre is about 4,047 m². Total costs equal operating costs plus allocated overhead. Overhead includes the estimated value of owned land, unpaid labor and capital, not only cash payments. Production value minus total costs is therefore not the farmer’s cash profit or a market-price floor. Values are nominal annual estimates, not inflation-adjusted prices per tonne or bushel. National averages do not describe every farm. Revisions and changes in the underlying survey base can affect comparisons over time.

Corn: U.S. fertilizer and other production costs
Corn: U.S. fertilizer and other production costs. USDA ERS is the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Economic Research Service. It estimates nationwide crop production value and costs per planted acre; one acre is about 4,047 m². Total costs equal operating costs plus allocated overhead. Overhead includes the estimated value of owned land, unpaid labor and capital, not only cash payments. Fertilizer is included in operating costs. Other operating costs are calculated as operating costs minus fertilizer, so the three components do not overlap. Values are U.S. averages in dollars per planted acre. They are not crop selling prices, supermarket prices or cash-profit estimates; survey-base changes and source revisions are retained.
