# Corn Leads Grain Rally on July WASDE Surprise | CZ app

> Corn futures led a grain rally after the July WASDE cut US corn stocks and showed stronger old-crop demand. French corn condition fell almost 30 points in two weeks, another heatwave threatens flowering crops, and a rumour suggested Russia could close the Azov Sea. Analysts expect some profit-taking but continued support from weather risks.
