CORN Dividend: Yield, Schedule, and What to Expect

Last updated July 2026

Short answer

CORN's approximate 0.00% yield (as of July 2026) makes it a growth-first, low-yield fund. It tracks CBOT corn futures (three-contract Teucrium benchmark) and passes through the dividends of its holdings, typically quarterly, minus a 1.00% expense ratio. If income is your goal, look to dedicated dividend funds for more; CORN is built for total return, not yield. If total return is the goal, the yield matters less than cost and what it holds. Yield is a recent snapshot, not a promise; verify the current figure with Teucrium.

How does the CORN dividend work?

CORN holds the companies in CBOT corn futures (three-contract Teucrium benchmark), collects the dividends they pay, and distributes them to shareholders (usually quarterly), net of its 1.00% fee. The yield you see is the trailing distributions divided by price, so it drifts as both change.

Provides exposure to the price of corn by holding a laddered mix of Chicago Board of Trade corn futures rather than any equities. To limit the drag from contango, the fund spreads positions across the second-to-expire contract, the third-to-expire contract, and the December contract following. It charges 1.00%, pays no dividend, and holds cash-equivalent collateral (Treasury and money-market instruments) against its futures. Best treated as a tactical commodity tool, not a long-term holding.

Approximate yield: 0.00% (July 2026).
What drives it: the payout of the underlying CBOT corn futures (three-contract Teucrium benchmark) holdings.

For more income: dedicated dividend or income ETFs target higher yield, with their own trade-offs.

The bottom line on the CORN dividend

The bottom line: at an approximate 0.00% yield, CORN is a growth-first, low-yield fund. If income is your goal, dedicated dividend funds pay more; CORN is the wrong tool for yield and the right one for total-return CBOT corn futures (three-contract Teucrium benchmark) exposure. If total return is the goal, the yield matters less than cost and what it holds. Treat the figure as a moving snapshot, not a fixed rate, and verify the current yield with Teucrium.
