Illinois Education Association CORN AND STOCKS THAN EXPECTED Total stocks of corn and soybeans on April 1 were less -than some observers expected: This brightened price prospects, but supplies are still at record high levels. Corn. Total stocks of corn on April 1 were estimated at 2,587 million bushels, or 12 percent more than the record for the date set a year earlier.- The disappearance of corn during January-March was 823 million bushels, 6 percent more than one year .before. This rapid use surprised some observers, since hog numbers were about the same as last year. .But more corn was required to replace oats and to supplement poor pastures and ranges. The carryover next fi>ct. 1 now appears likely to be around 1,400 million bushels, or one-fifth more than last year. On March 1, farmers indicated that they would cut their corh acreage 5 per cent below that of 1956. However, most of this reduction was on low-yielding land, and soil moisture now is generally more favorable than it was a &r ago and some land intended foAQats m&y be planted to corn. CCC sales of corn will be cut in coming weeks, but needs for feed will also be trimmed. Only small price changes are expected, as buyers' and sellers' price ideas seem to be geared to the $1.25 support level. Soybeans. Stocks of soybeans on April I totalled 217 million bushels, 23 perecent more rthan the previous record for the date set a year ago. Stocks on farms and in country elevators were much larger than last year, while stocks at processing plants' and terminal elevators were smaller. Farm stocks were 116 million bushels, 93 percent more than the year before. Country elevators held. 47 million bushels 73 per- V.. •x& EALER cent mot' , Prode held 44 34 perci [than the previous y ig plants on April 1 lllion bushels of beans, less than a year ago. Stocks, in^erminal elevators totaled 10 million bushels, 56 I percent less than the year before/. The C(jC has no soybeans now and had !jione .a year ago. On June 1, hQwever, the CCC will become the v owner of Derhaps 50 million bushels that farmers have pledged for price support loans. These beans will be offered for sale at market prices, but not less than the. support level plus 1% cents a month foi> carrying charges. Purchasers may be able to buy CCC beans as low as $2.26 on track in June, it so, bids to farmers would be around $2.20. Last fall the carryover of old beans was only 3 million bushels. The carryover next fall may be around| 30 millions bushels. This amount^would not be excessive, but it is much more than normal; The 1957 crop of soybeans may exceed last year's record. Farmers on March 1 indicated that they would plant 3*4 percent more acres than last. year. Some fields then intended for oafif may now be planted to beans, and the national yield may be higher than it was last year. ' & L. H. Simerl Dept. of Ag. Econ.
