January March feed demand for corn
1976
Butell, R. | Womack, A.
The second quarter of the corn marketing year (January March) is normally a period of heavy feeding. several multiple regression equations are used in determining those variables influencing corn feed use. production decisions earlier in the marketing year by livestock and poultry producers apparently have a stronger influence on feed demand in the second quarter than in the first. lagged livestock corn prices show this influence. livestock output and livestock prices in the current quarter are also important determinants of feed use. a projection for the January March 1976 quarter is provided and special mention is made of the slow expansion in hog production.
