Corn export sales remain on target.

Weekly export sales today cover Fri 3/8 – Thu 3/15 activity.

Sales of 1,185,807 tonnes were reported. The trade estimate was 800,000 – 1,400,000. USDA’s current 2.100 billion bushel goal for the year would be -2% from the five year average pace. Our year to date sales are -3% from average. To meet USDA’s goal remaining sales need to run +2% vs. the five year average. This week was +3%. We have nine weeks that have run +7% with the five year average. Allendale is even with USDA's current whole-year export view.
