Corn yields are above earlier expectations and production is 131.1 million bushels above a month earlier. Soybean production is placed at 128 million bushels the same as a month earlier. Variation in yields were i evident in most areas as har- 1 vest got underway. Although ; conditions were favorable for soybean harvest and combining js virtually completed, corn picking is lagging in some northern areas due to the high 1 moisture content.
