We published our acreage survey today. Was surprised to see how sticky corn acres are, according to our respondents. I do think if we see a print north of 95.0 million next week that will likely be the high print of the year. Check out our results here: profarmer.com/news/survey-sa…

We have ethanol yield data back to 2014. In December, the ethanol yield was a series low. That bounced back with a record high yield in January. What's up with that? Something must be amiss with either the USDA numbers or the EIA figures.
