# Is there a corn or bean yield story post-US crop tour?

> Reuters questions whether the post-crop-tour data points to a corn or soybean yield story. Soybean pod counts on the tour were 8% below average, the second-lowest in the last decade. Many pods in Minnesota, western Iowa and eastern Nebraska were still flat.
