Many farmers and ranchers feel USDA reports only drive down prices. The truth is, prices may be affected for several days surrounding the release of reports.

Actual supply and demand for agricultural commodities entering the market determines prices. Price changes following NASS reports are usually due to adjustments in market expectations.
Every report counts.
Results will be released in various USDA reports.
