This is your Daily Corn Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark podcast.

Welcome back to the Daily Corn Price Tracker, I am Vanessa Clark and thanks for joining me for your source on the latest news, prices, and insights from the world of corn markets. Today is Thursday, October twenty-third, twenty twenty-five, and we have a lot to cover, so let’s jump in.

First things first, let’s get right to the number everyone is searching for: the current trading price for the commodity corn. As of this afternoon, corn prices have firmed up to four hundred twenty-seven dollars and forty-three cents per bushel, according to Trading Economics. That’s up about one percent from yesterday and marks a gain of about point seven five percent over the past month. Compared to a year ago, we’re up just over one percent, so steady but slightly stronger if you’ve been holding on. For folks tracking futures, the December contract settled near four dollars and nineteen cents, while spot corn in cash markets has been trading just above four twenty at some locations, reflecting solid basis in spot-deficit areas.

What’s driving these recent price moves? The rebound comes as corn clawed back from a one-month low earlier this month. We’ve seen a tightening in immediate physical stocks, which is helping support prices despite expectations for a large overall crop harvest this season. U.S. Gulf ports have stepped up shipments to top buyers like Mexico, Japan, South Korea, and Colombia, indicating that export demand is actively absorbing what’s coming off the farm.

Still, the harvest isn’t all smooth sailing. Fieldwork has slowed in parts of the Western Corn Belt because of rainy weather and muddy fields, leading to uneven progress. Some areas, especially in Texas, are already seeing cash corn supplies tighten, which is boosting basis bids for available grain. For those wondering about revenue protection crop insurance, the average corn price used for October, which is key for insurance calculations, is hovering around four dollars and nineteen cents according to farm service reports. If you’re a grower, that might be a number to watch closely as the month wraps up.

Let’s also talk about demand. Domestic use of corn for ethanol continues to provide a boost. Ethanol production recently ticked up to one point one two million barrels per day, and inventories have actually dropped, which means more corn is headed to the plants and less is piling up in bins. Animal feed demand is also holding strong, with livestock producers looking for steady supplies, especially as we head into the winter.

Big picture, the market is still sorting through delayed USDA export and stocks reports because of the ongoing government shutdown, which makes private industry data like grain elevator loadings even more important for price discovery in the near term.

Looking forward, analysts from Trading Economics expect corn to remain relatively stable but with a possible gradual move higher over the next year, potentially reaching four fifty-one per bushel as demand outpaces stocks in some regions and any weather hiccups in exporting countries add to market nerves.

So, what does all this mean for you? If you’re a farmer, now might be a good time to review your marketing plans. For consumers or anyone in agribusiness, keep an eye on logistics and export flows — they’re making a difference in which regions are seeing tight versus comfortable supplies and how basis bids might shift week to week.
