Prices On Grains Likely To Remain New Crop Prospects Probably Will Bring First Change, Bureau Declares Washington, Jan. 2—The bureau of agricultural economics finds that “a comparatively stable corn mar ket is in prospect during the next few months. Oat prices have been rather steady since mid-summer, and barley prices have advanced slightly.” Reviewing present and prospec tive conditions in its December feed grain situation report, the bu reau said “there is nothing in the present situation that would indi cate material change in prices of these gains (until (they are influ enced by new crop prospects.” Total production of feed grains a bout equal to the 1928-32 average and 68 percent larger than the small production in 1936 has been estimated by the bureau. The corn crop was estimated at slightly above the 5-year average, since high yields more than offset the reduced acre ages. Production of oats, barley, and grain sorghums in 1937 was some what below average. Corn production was well above average in lowa, Minnesota and in all of the important corn produc ing states east of the Mississippi river. The sharp decline in feed grain I prices last summer and fall was attributed to the larger crops, the! decline in the general level of wholesale prices; more recently, to j marked seasonal declines in prices of hogs and cattle. But an active foreign demand for corn and the inauguration of the 1937 corn loan program, on the other hand, “have given some strength to corn prices recently,” the bureau said. Com production was reported as below average in many of the European countries, and the export able surplus in Argentina is con siderably below that of a year ago. Hence, exports of domestic corn during the winter months prob ably will be large compared with other recent years.
