Model-Implied Basis Risk by Crop-Year Quarter

Each plant-quarter regression relates Heartland basis to detrended regional corn production. Statistics apply that regression to historical 2006–2025 production deviations, excluding 2012. Values are $/bu; percentiles describe model-implied basis, not a confidence interval.
