Corn futures took a hard hit today, dropping nearly 25 cents after a major surprise from the USDA — while livestock markets continue to hold strong.

In today’s Boots and Bushels market update, we break down:

• Why the USDA report shocked the corn market

• What changed in production and ending stocks

• Why prices reacted so aggressively

• Why livestock markets are showing strength despite cheaper feed

• What producers should be watching next

This episode explains what happened and why it matters, without hype or guesswork. Whether you raise corn, feed cattle, or manage risk across both, today’s report reshaped the market conversation in a hurry.

Boots and Bushels is your daily look at the markets that feed America — plainspoken, producer-focused, and built for real farm decisions.
