MILWAUKEE (PRWEB) APRIL 14, 2020
According to the USDA National Agricultural Statistics Service, in 2019, 89.7 million acres of corn were planted in the United States, but only 81.5 were harvested. It is important for producers to know the price forecast for corn, in order to plan for the next year. New research released in the American Journal of Agricultural Economics looks into a more accurate and feasible corn cash price forecasting model for various market participants.
Xiaojie Xu from North Carolina State University found that the optimal combined model leads to a forecasting error that is only 10% or less of that of non-combined models.
Xu says “The research covers seven of eight largest corn harvest states in the U.S., which contribute to nearly 70% of the national harvest acres. A wide variety of time series models and combined models are surveyed for corn cash prices in these states. Daily forecasting is studied, facilitating market participants’ timely decision making.”
