Corn Crop Suffering Despite The Rain
Washington reports damage to the corn crop in the upper North Central states despite last week's rains. High temperatures kept topsoil moisture low, threatening yields and possibly raising grocery prices. The Agriculture Department trimmed its annual corn forecast to 5.85 billion bushels, while spring wheat progress and soybean prospects improve with recent rains. World grain reserves remain limited due to droughts outside the United States. County forecast calls for clear weather, highs near 100.
