Last week marked Pro Farmer’s 33rd Annual Crop Tour. Scouts measured potential corn yield and soybean pod counts across 7 states. Several records were notched, though many issues were uncovered, including heat stress and disease, which may impact how the crop finishes throughout much of the Corn Belt. We provide a detailed analysis for each state and synopsis of the U.S. corn and soybean crops. Also Included in this week’s edition are our national estimates for the corn and soybean crops, which are separate from Crop Tour results. Find this and more in this week’s newsletter.
