A McLean County, Illinois, farmer reported good soybean yields, despite cool, damp conditions slowing early seedling growth. Corn yields were affected by excessive June rain, hot weather during July pollination, and strong winds in August.
Weather-related corn yield losses could modestly reduce local supply and support corn prices, while good soybean yields point to comparatively ample local supply. The account is a county-level report rather than evidence of a larger market-wide crop shortfall.
