China’s Devastating Crop Losses Now Evident; N. America No Better Off

“After four years of de-stocking, China to end 2019 Corn Auctions.” This is a news headline off agriCENSUS, which in my personal opinion is due to the spring and the fall armyworm infestation across the country. These pests’ devastation reduced corn production by at least 35% and China literally has nothing to sell, thus, a suspension of corn auctions.

This is a sudden decision from China, they had been holding auctions for the last four years without fail, then suddenly a decided to terminate corn reserve auctions.

Normally, they sell about a hundred million tons of corn in a year. For example, China sold 100 million tons in 2018, but this year 2019, they have only sold 22 million tons so far, and that will be it.

China’s Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs stated that 2019 is likely the last round of de-stocking or corn sales at auction, and they will be keeping all their stocks in the country. This is one of the reasons why trade deals are forthcoming in the United States, China is literally running out of food.

Case in point, “Chinese Imports of U.S. pork Soar to the Highest Ever as Beijing Faces Food Crisis.” This can be seen in the Chinese Pork Wholesale Spot Price that has been steadily going up, taking us to a substantial 11-year highs.

This is a glimpse of how much pork China is importing from the US. It’s seven times greater than September’s total shipments, and this is only a one-month increase.

In addition, China brought out an enormous amount from their strategic pork reserves due to the 70th anniversary of the CCP or the Communist Party on October 1st. They had to be able to serve pork for everybody, because what kind of leadership will you portray if you claim to be a world leader on everything, yet unable to produce pork for the people on a holiday festival?

Now, the news headlines are referring to this pig phenomenon, and their attempt to grow pigs the size of polar bears. At least that is what the news says, which is pretty interesting for anyone who wants pig rides.

Moreover, as this agricultural depression is prevalent in China the U.S. is no better off. Look at this second historic blizzard sweeping through their growing zones in these many weeks.

This one, particularly, is much colder and coupled with more ferocious winds than two weeks ago. As this front progressed as a blizzard at 60 to 80 miles-per-hour winds, multiple feet of snow were in the mix as well.

On top of that, an enormous cold front descended behind, which meant an end to the growing season wherever that cold touched. So, apparently, growing season will be done for 2019 in most of the corn and wheat growing areas of the US, as depicted in this chart.

Additionally, anywhere in the blue regions are looking for harvesting crops that are immature from the 2-month-late planting, due to snow. This is why, your guess is as good as mine: Yields would be significantly lowered.

Headlines off agriCENSUS for the crop pricing. “Corn commentary: Futures storm back as US-China optimism grows.” This is a good thing because there will be more corn to feed China. Their lack of scarcity there would mean a better option for pricing for U.S. farmers, so they can get seed for next year to plant, as well as loans for machinery.

“Wheat futures surging, Black Sea cash wakes up” also “Soybeans highest price since the trade war began.” We have to go back half a year to clarify that, and lastly, “Domestic US basis spike demand hits amid the slow harvest pace.”

By the way, this slow harvest pace is the slowest since 1938. That addendum could be put at the end of that headline.

In the meantime beautiful ghost clouds?

These are called ghost clouds, and this atmospheric anomaly was photographed over the French Alps.
