Michigan's annual crop summary reports a record 2016 soybean yield of 50.5 bu/acre, while corn yield averaged 157 bu/acre, down 5 bushels from the prior record. Harvest was delayed by a wet spring but finished close to normal pace.
A state-level record soybean crop adds to the broader US supply picture, though Michigan's volume is small relative to national output and the impact on prices is limited.
