Farmers really cut back on corn with the planting intentions coming in at just 89.49 million acres, 2.5 million acres below the average trade estimate and over 4 million acres less than last year. Most of the corn acres went over to soybeans where the report showed 2.2 million acres more soybeans. <br \/> \t\u201cIt has been a very volatile first quarter of trade,\u201d says Kluis. <br \/> \tWatch the video below for a review of the acres and stocks reported.  \t<\/p>\n<div class=\"video__wrapper\">   <video class=\"video-js\" data-embed=\"default\" data-controls=\"true\" data-brand=\"agriculture\" data-account=\"5972928226001\" data-player=\"default\" data-video-id=\"6302445083001\">   <\/video> <\/div>\n<p> \tEarly frosts in Argentina&#8217;s farming belt could cause further losses to soybeans and corn for the 2021\/22 season, the Buenos Aires grains exchange said on Thursday, a potential blow to production already hit hard by drought earlier this year. <br \/> \tArgentina is the world\u2019s leading exporter of soybean oil and meal and the No. 2 exporter of corn. However, due to a drought between December and January, the exchange cut its soybean harvest forecast by 2 million tonnes and by 7 million tonnes for corn. <br \/> \tIt currently estimates soybean production at 42 million tonnes and corn at 49 million tonnes, with both harvests getting under way. <br \/> \tBelarus will allow companies to export potash fertilizer in response to Western sanctions, starting on April 6, RIA news agency said on Wednesday, citing a government decision. <br \/> \tBelarus is the world\u2019s third-largest producer of the crop nutrient after Canada and Russia, and state-owned Belaruskali is one of the world\u2019s largest players. <br \/> \tBeginning in May, John Deere will expand its Customer Service Advisor digital database for customers and independent repair shops to purchase directly through John Deere\u2019s website. <br \/> \tEditor Alex Gray writes that updates\u00a0are planned for the service, which will be coming in 2023. They include a mobile device interface and the ability to download software updates to embedded controllers on select Deere equipment with 4G data connection. <br \/>&copy; 2022 Meredith Corporation.
