Corn CCI rating slips, soybean rating improves
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 1.3 points to 355.8, despite the unchanged good/excellent national ratings, as both Iowa and Nebraska declined slightly more than one point each. The corn CCI rating is now 11.2 points below the five-year average. The soybean crop improved 3.1 points to 353.9, which was still 2.7 points below average.
The spring wheat crop improved 2.9 points to 375.4, though that was slightly below ratings for this point in the growing season for 2018, 2019 and 2020.
