Record Corn Crop for 2011 / 2012 Projected

The USDA released its World Agricultural Demand and Supply Estimate report this week and the corn crop shows a projection for a record 13.5 billion bushel crop for 2011.

Corn production for 2011/12 is projected at a record 13.5 billion bushels, up 1.1 billion from 2010/11 as a 4.0-million-acre increase in intended plantings and a recovery from last year’s weather-reduced yields boost expected output.
