PARKER, Colo. (RFD NEWS) — Markets opened the week with the first WASDE report of the year, delivering a bearish outlook for both corn and soybeans. The updated supply and demand estimates have raised new questions for producers about how lower prices could impact projected ARC and PLC payments.
Farm CPA Paul Neiffer joined RFD NEWS on Friday to break down what the latest report could mean for farmers as they look ahead.
In his interview with RFD NEWS, Neiffer walked through what he is expecting for ARC and PLC payments under the current price outlook, explaining how the latest WASDE figures factor into payment calculations. He outlined how declining commodity prices could influence payment levels and what producers should be watching as the marketing year continues.
Neiffer also addressed what happens if prices fall further, detailing how additional downside risk could affect both ARC and PLC outcomes and the financial planning decisions farmers may need to consider.
The conversation also included an update on Supplemental Disaster Relief Program (SDRP) payments, with Neiffer providing insight into the status of Stage 2 payments and what producers should know as they wait for further guidance.
Harvested acres are estimated at 90.0 million, making this year’s corn crop one of the largest since the 1930s.
