Minnesota harvest progressed quickly, with corn about 75% harvested and soybeans at 94%. Widespread drought, rated D1 to D4 across nearly the entire state, cut soybean yields, while corn yields are running better than expected on some farms.
Lower Minnesota soybean output tightens local meal supply, but corn results that beat expectations add to ample feed grain supplies and cap corn prices.
