The Hightower Report said, “The corn market closed with near double digit gains, buoyed by strength in wheat. Israel struck some Iranian gas fields today and in response Iran gave a list of Middle East targets that are in their crosshairs for missile strikes. This gave crude a boost early in the session and revived war premium concerns.” Amanda Brill at Total Farm Marketing said, “Ethanol production slipped to 321 mil. Gallons for the week ending March 13. This total was down from 331 mil. Gallons the previous week, and down 1% from last year. A total of 108 mb of corn was used last week in ethanol production. This is slightly behind the pace to reach the USDA usage target of 5.6 billion bushels.”
