A northeast Missouri farmer reported corn yields of 180–220 bushels per acre, while some soybean fields yielded only 30–40 bushels per acre. He said later-planted soybeans did better after receiving September rain; Missouri corn harvest was 86% complete and soybean harvest 79% complete.
Strong local corn yields point to ample nearby supply and are mildly bearish for corn, while weaker soybean results could modestly tighten local supply. The account is anecdotal and unlikely to shift broader market balances on its own.
After 357 past bearish weather events, Corn moved a median -0.3% over 5 sessions (44% higher; middle half -2.2% to +1.3%), and -0.5% over 20.
After 1,079 past bullish weather events, Soybeans moved a median +0.3% over 5 sessions (54% higher; middle half -1.4% to +2.0%), and +0.9% over 20.
