Purdue Center for Commercial Ag to host free corn and soybean outlook webinar

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Purdue University’s Center for Commercial Agriculture will host a free corn and soybean outlook webinar for the month of February at 3 p.m. ET Wednesday (Feb. 10). Registration is available.

The webinar will take place following the release of the United States Department of Agriculture’s February Crop Production and World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE) reports. These reports and strategies to consider for 2021 will be the webinar’s main topics.

“Tight U.S. crop supplies combined with concerns about the South American harvest and prospects for big acreage swings are all on ag producers’ minds,” said James Mintert, professor and director of the Center for Commercial Agriculture. “Michael Langemeier, Nathanael Thompson and I will walk participants through updated information from USDA and other sources and discuss strategies to consider for 2021.”

Langemeier is a professor and associate director of the Center for Commercial Agriculture, and Thompson is an assistant professor in Purdue’s Department of Agricultural Economics. Registration is free on the Center for Commercial Agriculture’s website. After registering, participants will receive a confirmation email with a link to view the webinar live at its scheduled time. Those unable to join live can register to receive a follow-up email after the webinar to download the slides and view the recording.
