  Summary: The first 2021/22 forecast data released by the Chicago Agricultural Resources Corporation shows that the total corn output in Brazil in 2021/22 is expected to reach 111.99 million tons, an increase of 36.4% over the previous year. The supply is expected to increase, and the US corn crop harvest is progressing smoothly. , The seasonal harvest pressure on the US corn market still exists. However, analysts predict that the US Department of Agriculture’s September 30 quarterly inventory report will lower corn inventories. Domestically, the current weather factors affect the progress of corn harvesting and drying, and the concentrated launch of autumn corn may also be delayed. Processing companies and China National Grain Storage Co., Ltd. have begun to open warehouses one after another, and the northern ports have opened new grains, and this year’s corn harvesting time is slower than usual. The supply of dry grain in the market may be tight, which is good for the market. The continuous rainy weather in the Huanghuai production area in North China has aggravated the difficulty of harvesting new corn, and also caused damage to new corn in some areas and reduced production. The supply of corn at the grassroots level has also been affected. The market supply continues to be tight. The volume of deep-processing companies’ factory door arrivals has declined, and the power curtailment policy in many places has caused deep-processing companies to become more worried. The operating rate has rebounded. The demand for corn purchases has improved. . However, it is forecasted that the rainfall in North China will gradually decrease at the end of September and early October, and the quantity of new grains may accelerate again in the later period, and the easing of supply is expected to remain. On the disk, corn has maintained a volatile trend after the recent rebound, and the intensity remains to be seen. Wait and see for the time being before the holiday.

  The progress of corn listing has slowed down due to the influence of the weather, the quantity of deep processing arrivals has decreased, the purchase price is relatively strong, and the cost support has increased. However, processing profits have improved, and under the influence of the power curtailment policy, corporate worries have increased, operating rates have picked up, and short-term starch supply is expected to increase. In general, the recent starch futures prices have rebounded following the corn market. However, in the case of continued decline in inventories, the trend of starch is stronger than that of corn, so wait and see for the time being before the holiday.
