think we better take these with a gov grain of salt....corn and beans up 11 points in Illinois....this time of year would be exactly impossible, Maybe they got the covid number confused?

Thanks mcfarm!

That one stuck out for me too. 

However, I'm not sure that it's a glitch. The weather is Illinois couldn't have been better recently, especially for the corn and early filling for the corn, where cool temps are the most important by a wide margin(unless there's a drought).
