Spent the weekend up North (which around here means Wisconsin) and the corn is the tallest and healthiest I have ever seen. Now I know what corn looks like (and what it's /supposed / to look like) and this ain't it. Some stalks 10' high! I grew up here in the Midwest and did undergrad at a land-grant and this looks to be the healthiest crop with the highest yields of my life. I'm not easily wowed by corn but- WOW!

Yep, corn is very good in Wisconsin. Actually its very good through all the US. Understand that Canada has been having some issues but I believe mostly in Canola etc.

The corn is doing exceptionally well in Wisconsin. That's what record rains and plenty of heat and humidity will get you.

But, it's not the only soft commodity that's doing well.

Corn crop is excellent here in Ontario. The problems in Canada are mostly out west.
