QuantCube Technology, specialists in alternative macroeconomic data, has introduced a series of four QuantCube Agricultural Yield Forecasts, offering early estimates for corn, soybean, wheat, and rice yields on regional, national, and global scales.

Quantcube’s approach leverages real-time meteorological data with the company’s own Vegetation Index, which provides an accurate view of the overall wellness of key crop groups throughout their development.  Aimed at financial institutions, commodity traders, and governmental bodies, QuantCube’s coverage now extends to over 20 countries.
