Weather forecasts indicate that the western Corn Belt will continue to experience hot and dry weather this week, potentially extending into next week. July is a crucial month for the corn crop, as most corn will enter the pollination stage at this time. The pollination period is a key stage in determining corn yield. The U.S. Department of Agriculture predicts that the average U.S. corn yield in 2026 will reach the second highest on record, at 183 bushels per acre, second only to last years record of 186.5 bushels. However, the continued high temperatures could affect the crops harvest prospects. One analyst stated that if this weather persists, a yield of 180 bushels per acre may be closer to reality. A decline in yield will suppress U.S. supply. He added that if the yield is below 180 bushels per acre, the U.S. corn supply will be very tight.Venezuelas chief economic advisor: We will release a sustainability analysis of the necessary debt restructuring in the coming weeks.
