Corn and soybean ratings improved last week in Ohio.
The USDA says the average statewide temperature was just over four degrees warmer than usual, while precipitation was in-line with normal rates, and farmers had five days suitable for fieldwork.
59% of Ohio’s corn crop is rated good to excellent, up 3% on the week, with 91% of the crop silking, compared to the five-year average of 86%, 45% at the dough making stage, compared to 38% on average, and 1% dented.
