Final Report - The Kansas #wheatharvest23 is finally drawing to a close at 95% complete, according to @USDA_NASS. Overall, this wheat harvest will be one for the record books, although not in the way that producers would prefer. https://t.co/MwbjQUjh3T

Since June 12th, NOLA #urea has rallied $140
Since July 10th, NOLA #dap has rallied $65 (MAP much more)

Jim Gerlach-July will likely be the driest since 2014 in the Corn Belt, while April-July will likely be the driest since 2012 or 1988. If August is moderately drier than normal, April-August would be the driest since 1988 with a low chance to be the driest since 1936.
