Frost may burn corn and beans in late frost risk
Washington AP reports fears that late maturing corn and soybeans could suffer from autumn frosts due to the wet cold spring of 1982. The USDA forecasts record corn harvest of 8.32 billion bushels and soybean output at 2.29 billion, with a Sept 10 crop report. Progress notes show harvest may run late in key areas, as cool temps slow development in the western Corn Belt, Iowa denting only 11 percent of corn.
