# US yields mixed | Market Columns | leadertelegram.com

> Central Iowa yield reports show corn down up to 15% from last year, with some Eastern Corn Belt areas claiming 20% losses, linked to excessive summer rain and fungus. Farmers are reluctant corn sellers while selling soybeans, and China has booked 11.3 million tons of U.S. soybeans.
