"FIRST operates a network of nearly 300 yield trial locations across the country -- from the Red River Valley of North Dakota down to Missouri and Kentucky and from Ohio to Kansas."
"Just looking at 2025 versus 2024, year over year, we're substantially behind as far as the average corn yield that we've seen in our plots," Dahle said
"Following the trend of being 40 to 50 bushels above USDA's final yield leads to a national average somewhere between 167.4 bpa and 177.4 bpa.
"On the surface level, a drop of yield like that would certainly make headlines," said Rhett Montgomery, DTN lead market analyst. "At the most extreme, 167.4 bpa would be well below trendline and the lowest U.S. corn yield since 2013. On the other end of the range, 177.4 bpa would also no longer be a U.S. record, but it would still be the second-largest U.S. corn yield behind 2024."
