Corn, soybeans and wheat futures fell sharply overnight as weather models shifted to cooler, wetter conditions for the Midwest in coming weeks. Rain was expected to ease dryness concerns, though some areas stay warm.
India's monsoon covered two-thirds of the country about two weeks ahead of normal.
Improved Midwest soil moisture reduces yield risk premium, pushing corn, soybean and wheat prices lower. Early monsoon rains support Indian soybean and rice planting, adding to global supply outlook.
