Corn was rated 68% in good-to-excellent condition, and soybeans were rated 65% in good-to-excellent condition as of Sunday, July 12. Winter wheat harvest reached 67% complete.
A coalition of labor unions and nonprofits is asking a federal court to halt USDA's reorganization, alleging the department is using relocations to drive workforce reductions.
