Weekly Crop Report June 2, 2023 – Almost all crops are doing well
This article is based primarily on the May 31, 2023, USDA Crop Bulletin which covers the May 21 – 28 period of time. The USDA report usually becomes available on Tuesdays but due to the Memorial Day Weekend it was not published until Wednesday and Wednesday night I published the end-of-month update of the June weather outlook (click HERE to read) so I am publishing the crop article tonight a day late.
Almost all crops are doing well. Corn and soybeans, which are two of the major crops, are doing very well. We will see how they handle the drought anticipated in certain areas in June.
We also include the May 2023 report on the prices received and paid by farmers in April 2023.
The article includes a short international review of agricultural conditions.
