The latest USDA National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) estimates located, dated September 11, 2026, put U.S. 2026 corn production at 15.799759 billion bushels and soybean production at 4.534981 billion bushels. These are interim estimates, not final annual totals.
What are the latest USDA corn and soybean estimates?
NASS’s September 11, 2026 Crop Production report estimated the following national totals:
| 2026 crop | Estimated production | Harvested acres | Average yield |
|---|---|---|---|
| Corn | 15.799759 billion bushels | 88.506 million | 178.5 bushels per acre |
| Soybeans | 4.534981 billion bushels | 85.881 million | 52.8 bushels per acre |
Source for every figure in the table: USDA National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS), 2026 Crop Production estimates dated September 11, 2026 (corn report; soybean report).
Production estimates combine harvested acreage and expected yield. The June 30 NASS Acreage report estimated 95.3 million planted corn acres and 85.4 million planted soybean acres. Planted acreage is not interchangeable with the harvested-acre figures above: some planted acres may not ultimately be harvested for grain or beans (NASS Acreage report, June 30, 2026).

#1 Best Overall
- High Yield Bush Growth: midori giant edamame seeds form 24-36 inch nitrogen-fixing bushes, rewarding vegetable garden growers in USDA 3-9 with crunchy pods rich in complete protein.
- Fast Germination: soybean seeds for planting sprout in 5-10 days at 70-90 °F, letting home garden beginners harvest tender edamame in just 80 days while heirloom seeds thrive in loamy soil.
- Nutrient-Rich Snack: soy beans deliver sweet nutty flavor and buttery texture; boil or freeze for soy-protein snacks, soy bean seeds to plant are ideal for survival gardening fans seeking clean non gmo edamame.
- Easy Direct Sow: edamame seeds for planting outdoors need 1" depth and 12" spacing, no trellis required; bush habit suits containers or raised beds, making veggie seeds ideal for small spaces.
- Disease-Smart Cultivation: edamame seeds to plant resist common pests when grown in full sun and evenly moist soil; gardening kit growers mulch to conserve water and pick bright green pods before they yellow.
Why these are not final 2026 totals
NASS issues corn and soybean estimates in the August, September, October, and November Crop Production reports, then publishes a January Crop Production Annual Summary. The September figures are one point in that reporting cycle. The exact date of the next report is not established here, so check NASS’s official release calendar for the schedule.
NASS’s September 30, 2026 Grain Stocks release also revised estimates for the 2025 crop: corn production was revised down less than 1 percent and soybean production was revised down slightly. Those revisions concern 2025 and do not change the September 2026 estimates above (NASS Grain Stocks, September 30, 2026).

How to read the production figures
Total production reflects both acres harvested and yield per acre. A large crop total can result from more harvested acreage, higher yield, or a combination; the report’s separate measures help distinguish those factors. For a meaningful comparison with another release or crop year, compare the same crop and measure, and identify the date and baseline. The September estimates are NASS statistical estimates, not independently observed final results.
Crop Production is different from WASDE
NASS Crop Production reports estimate crop acreage, yield, and production. USDA’s World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE), prepared by the World Agricultural Outlook Board, provides annual supply-and-use forecasts for U.S. and world commodities. The products are related, but they answer different questions: crop production is one part of supply, while WASDE places supply alongside demand and other balance-sheet items (USDA WASDE overview).

What the estimates do—and do not—say about prices
A production estimate alone does not establish what corn or soybean prices will do. NASS notes that its reports alone should not be treated as responsible for price changes; other information can affect prices, while supply and demand ultimately determine price levels (NASS, “Price Reactions to USDA Crop Reports”). These figures are useful inputs for understanding expected supply, not a standalone price prediction.
