DES MOINES, Iowa — For the second week in a row, the U.S. corn crop rating is the same as it was the previous week. Plus, there is not much to write home to ‘mom’ about, regarding the U.S. soybean crop.
As of Sunday, 67% of the U.S. corn crop had been rated good/excellent, unchanged from a week ago and well under a rating last year at this time of 75%, according to the USDA Crop Progress Report Monday.
