The USDA Acreage Report provided an estimate on the planted acres of the major crops, corn, soybeans, wheat and others.  It is doubtful that USDA will reduce the acreages due to the recent flooding in the northern plain states which will damage crops.

Corn Planted Acreage Down 4 Percent from 2013
Soybean Acreage Up 11 Percent
All Wheat Acreage Up Less Than 1 Percent
All Cotton Acreage Up 9 Percent
