Record corn and soybean harvests lift output in Midwest
The USDA projects 9.6 billion bushels of corn and 2.46 billion of soybeans this year after flood decimation, with near ideal weather boosting yields to record levels while prices fall. Corn may average $1.96 to $2.30 per bushel, soybeans $4.60 to $5.30, and production costs around $2.21 for corn and $5.22 for soybeans. Government supports may offset price gaps to target $2.75 per bushel.
