🌾 China’s Wheat Woes, Trade Tensions & Weather Swings! 🇨🇳🌦️
🔥 Extreme Heat Hits China's Wheat Crop
China’s key wheat regions just saw their hottest May since 1961. Some fields suffered yield losses of up to 50% due to drought! 😳🚜 Farmers with irrigation held steady, but questions linger about potential wheat imports.
🛑 Trump vs. Xi: Trade Talks Stalled

🌧️ Corn Belt Forecast Flip
Yesterday’s “ultra-dry” GFS outlook? ❌ Probably wrong! New data suggests 82% of normal rainfall in the 8-14 day window. Still, the west looks dry in both GFS and Euro models. 🌽⚠️
🧪 Crop Sabotage? Chinese Nationals Charged
Two Chinese citizens face charges for smuggling a crop-damaging fungus—Fusarium graminearum—into the US. 🚨🌾 This pathogen can wreck wheat and poison livestock. Officials say the suspects had studied the fungus back in China. Yikes.
⛽ Ethanol Record!
US ethanol production just hit a weekly all-time high: 1.1M barrels/day! 📈💥 Stocks also surged to 24.4M barrels. Strong margins are back, according to Reuters.
🌀 NOAA Fully Staffed Ahead of Hurricane Season
