Farmers in the U.S. were nearing completion of the soybean harvest and making solid progress with the corn crop, despite recent showers that delayed field work in the eastern half of the Corn Belt. A poll of 11 analysts found the soybean harvest at about 73% complete by Sunday, and the corn harvest at roughly 59% complete. The ranges were wide: 61%–82% for soybeans and 51%–66% for corn

Crop Estimates Committee (CEC) has raised its forecast for South Africa’s 2024/25 maize crop to roughly 16.3 million metric tons, marking an approximate 27% increase from the previous season’s estimated 12.85 million tons.
