Market Outlook

USDA’s Acreage report last month indicated that the 2020/21 soybean acreage is 83.8 million acres, a 10-percent recovery from 2019/20. A slightly higher harvested acreage estimate raises USDA’s forecast of 2020/21 soybean production by 10 million bushels from last month to 4.135 billion and from 3.55 billion last year. Changes for domestic soybean demand hike the expected season-ending stocks by 30 million bushels to 425 million. USDA raised its forecast of the 2020/21 U.S. average farm price by 30 cents per bushel this month to $8.50.

In this episode, Dr. John Deen, a retired Distinguished Global Professor Emeritus from the University of Minnesota, explains how pandemic threats continue to shape U.S. swine health and production. He discusses vulnerabilities in diagnostics, movement control, and national preparedness while drawing lessons from ASF, avian influenza, and field-level epidemiology. Listen now on all major platforms.

"Pandemic events in swine systems continue to generate significant challenges because early signals often resemble common conditions, creating delays that increase spread and economic disruption."
