Farmers got more of this year�s corn crop planted last week, but still just 51% of the nation�s corn has been put in the ground, compared with a 5-year average of 77% for this date, USDA says. Over the last 5 years, one-third of the crop had already emerged at this point; this year just 11% is up. Cold, wet weather in the Midwest has delayed planting.

USDA projects a smaller harvest in 2008/09, leaving ending stocks of just 763 million bushels, the lowest since 1996. Next year, nearly one-third of the corn crop is expected to go to ethanol, according to Friday�s �World Agricultural Supply & Demand Estimates� report. cme
