Corn, soybean CCI ratings decline to the lowest of the year
When USDA’s weekly condition ratings are plugged into the weighted Pro Farmer Crop Condition Index (CCI; 0 to 500-point scale, with 500 representing perfect), the corn crop dropped 1.8 points to its lowest level of the year at 363.4 and 5.1 points below the five-year average for mid-July. The soybean crop fell 3.0 points to 353.4, which is also it’s lowest rating of the year and 2.1 points below average.
The spring wheat crop continues to improve, with the CCI rating up 1.5 points for the week and now 46.1 points above the five-year average, though that includes last year’s drought-ravaged crop.
