The winter wheat crop has come out of dormancy with 45% rated good to excellent—average for this time of year. But recent declines in condition? Not ideal. It’s like a NBA playoffs favorite suddenly missing shots.

Then there’s the wildcard: weather. We've shifted from La Niña to Neutral, and that’s like replacing a franchise QB with a rookie (my Steelers need a QB)—you don’t know what you’re gonna get. It could swing crop outcomes in either direction.
