The initial cmdtyView Bean Yield from Barchart is to see 50.64 bpa. Taking that off 86.5m harvested acres leaves output at 4.38 bbu.
Ahead of the WASDE report, survey respondents are looking for USDA to cut 7.6 mbu from soybean production to 4.502 bbu. The full range is from UNCH to 90 mbu smaller. Yield is expected to be 51-52.4 bpa vs. 52 in the May report. The average trade guess for new crop carryout is 340.8 mbu, 5.8 million looser.
