AgWeb reports that corn and soybean conditions continued to decline, with corn at 69% good to excellent and soybeans down to 67%. Some growers face drought while others in Iowa and South Dakota report severe flooding.
June has been among the wettest on record in the Upper Midwest and among the driest in the Ohio Valley and Mid-Atlantic.
Uneven extremes of flood and drought in key growing areas increase the risk of yield losses for corn and soybeans, supporting feed grain and meal prices.
