 The total planted acreage for corn, soybeans, and wheat is estimated at 224.8 million acres for this year. While this is a decrease from 2023, it's still higher than the agency's earlier forecast in the March prospective plantings report. In corn, the USDA report estimates that corn acreage for this year stands at 91.5 million acres. This figure is down 3% from last year, but does mark an increase from the March estimate.
