This is your Daily Corn Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark podcast.
Hey friends, welcome to another episode of Daily Corn Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark. Im Vanessa, your go-to guide for all things corn market, and today were diving into the latest corn prices, futures trends, and what it means for you whether youre a farmer, trader, or just keeping tabs on commodity prices.
First up, the closing numbers from the Chicago Board of Trade on February 2. The front-month March corn futures settled down 2 cents at 4.25 dollars per bushel, with May down 2 at 4.33. CK News Today reports 2025 crop corn down 2 cents to 5.66 per bushel, and 2026 crop corn off just 1 cent at 5.70 per bushel. Thats a slight dip across the board, continuing the weakness we saw last week, as noted by IndexBox and Total Farm Marketing. Trading volume was lighter too, around 94,000 contracts, down from Fridays busier session.
Why the slide? Dry weather in southern Argentina dropped their corn crop good-to-excellent rating to 46 percent per the Buenos Aires Grain Exchange, but strong Brazilian soybean harvests at 10 percent complete are stealing some demand spotlight. US export sales are up 33 percent year-over-year at 57 million metric tons, a bright spot according to Producer.com. Outside factors like a firmer US dollar and lower crude oil added pressure.
For you listening, heres your actionable takeaway: If youre a corn farmer, analysts like Brian Burke from John Stewart and Associates say get proactive now for 2026 marketing. Prices are in a carry pattern, so consider forward sales later in the year around 4.60 to minimize losses, especially with tight cattle inventories reducing feed demand. Dont sit on old crop hoping for miracles, blend in some new crop contracts to lock in better basis.
