Missouri Crop Report Faces Severe Drought Across State
The August 1 Missouri crop report notes July rainfall was deficient statewide with extreme heat harming crops. Western Missouri shows moisture sufficiency while southeastern Missouri suffers the worst drought. Corn yields vary by county with many regions below normal and some corn in shock or silos. Wheat yields average around 17 bushels with several better-than-average results but overall disappointing in key counties. Oats show about 60 percent cut with yields often above 30 in a few counties, and potatoes and fruit suffer from dryness.
