Feed Outlook, December 2019

With no new data from the National Agricultural Statistics Service this month, and steady demand from exports, food, seed, and industrial use, and feed and residual use, there were no balance sheet changes this month to corn, sorghum, or oats. Projected prices are unchanged for corn and sorghum and lowered 5-cents per bushel for barley and oats.
 
The global production of coarse grains is expected to expand month over month by 6.81 million metric tons. This revision is driven by record Chinese corn yields, which increased their total supply by 6.77 million tons and is expected to increase carryout in 2019/20. This change more than offsets reductions in Australian coarse grains production due to continued drought, amongst other small revisions.

Video: Autonomous AI Sprayer Changes Weed Control


Discover how robotics and artificial intelligence are transforming crop protection across the Midwest.

Taylor Wetli, U.S. Commercial Manager for Solinftec, @Solinftec joins host Shane Gray to break down the Solix Autonomous Sprayer and how precision ag technology is reshaping modern farming.

He explains how AI-powered cameras identify weeds plant by plant, enabling targeted spraying that can reduce chemical use by up to 90%. From solar-powered autonomy to large-scale fleet deployment, Taylor shares how this innovation helps farmers boost efficiency, cut inputs, and rethink field operations.

This conversation also explores real-world adoption, farmer-friendly design, early-season spraying, and how robotics could support conservation programs and the farm bill. It’s a look at the next generation of ag tech and its impact on growers of all sizes.
