Other agriculture commodities have not been as fortunate in the performance department. The Teucrium Corn Fund (NYSEArca: CORN) and the Teucrium Soybean Fund (NYSEArca: SOYB) are off 15.6% and 5.47%, respectively, year-to-date.

There are signs that some investors are trying to catch a bottom with select agriculture ETPs. For example, CORN has attracted $42.3 million in new assets this quarter tumbling 12.5% since July 1. The iPath Dow Jones-UBS Cotton Total Return Sub-Index (NYSEArca: BAL) has added nearly $9 million this quarter despite sliding 9.6%.
