|

Pile of yellow corn by ivoris via iStock Corn futures pushed higher into the close on Wednesday with contracts up 3 to 5 cents across the front months. A record ethanol grind number helped. The CmdtyView national average Cash Corn price was up 3 ½ cents to $3.96. EIA reported ethanol production at a record 1.123 million barrels per day, up 32,000 bpd from the previous week. That helped to build stocks by 288,000 barrels to 22.655 million barrels as of October 31. Exports of ethanol slipped back 68,000 bpd to 107,000 bpd, with refiner inputs of ethanol down 7,000 bpd to 904,000 bpd.

Trump To Democrats: SNAP Returns Only After Gov't Reopens; USDA Warns Grocers On Illegal Food Stamp Discounts
The Trump administration said Monday it plans to partially fund the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) after judges ruled in November that contingency funds must be used to pay for the benefits.
One major issue with SNAP has been the widespread fraud that erupted under the Biden-Harris regime. U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins revealed Sunday that the USDA has purged 700,000 fraudulent recipients so far this year.
On my first day @USDA, we told every state to send us their SNAP data so we could make sure illegal immigrants aren't getting benefits meant for American families. 29 states stepped up. 21 blue states refused — and two SUED US FOR ASKING! ??♀️
And guess what? In just the states… pic.twitter.com/W7ha0Le1eN

700,000 Ineligible SNAP Recipients Purged After USDA Uncovers Widespread Food Stamp Fraud
U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins joined Fox News on Sunday and addressed the American people about the USDA's massive effort to combat fraud in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP).
Rollins said that the Trump administration sent letters to all governors prohibiting illegal aliens from accessing benefits, with a historic request for state data to be audited alongside the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). She said only 29 states cooperated, primarily red and some blue states.
She said her team and DOGE found some of the most shocking fraud ever, resulting in the purging of 700,000 ineligible recipients since the president's inauguration, and arrested 118 individuals.
