# Harvest begins across the country | Market Columns | leadertelegram.com

> US harvest has begun with early yield reports ranging from better than expected to best ever, though accurate production data may take time.

Concern centers on whether slower corn planting could reduce Safrinha yields, and US-China tariff talks remain unresolved.
