  • Corn Futures Slip Slightly on Friday After Thursday Gains
    March 20, 2026, 10:26 AM EDT. Corn futures edged lower Friday morning after strong gains on Thursday, where contracts rose 5 to 6 cents. The preliminary open interest increased by 10,767 contracts, mainly for December and March deliveries. The national average cash corn price rose by 5.5 cents to $3.78 1/4. S&P Global cut the U.S. corn yield estimate to 185.5 bushels per acre, down 3.6 bushels, with production forecast at 16.707 billion bushels. Harvest pace may slow due to light rain expected in key regions including Nebraska, Iowa, and the Dakotas. The December corn contract closed at $4.21 3/4, up 5 1/4 cents but was down slightly Friday. Market watchers await October's average December close to set the insurance harvest price.
