Today, USDA published the 14th Crop Progress report of the 2025 growing season. Here’s a look at the latest corn, soybean, wheat, and oat numbers.

Corn

As of July 6, 18% of the corn crop across the country’s top 18 corn-growing states had reached the silking stage. That’s ahead of the five-year average of 15%.

This was the first report of the season to include the progress of the corn crop at the dough stage. USDA said 3% of the crop across nine states had reached the dough stage. The five-year average is 2%.

The agency reported the condition of the nation’s corn crop as follows, including a season-high good/excellent rating:

  • Good/excellent: 74%
  • Fair: 21%
  • Poor/very poor: 5%

Soybeans

The USDA said that as of July 6, 96% of the soybean crop across the top 18 soybean-growing states had emerged. The five-year average is 98%.

Thirty-two of the crop in all 18 states had reached the blooming stage, just ahead of the five-year average of 31%.

As of July 6, 8% of the crop in 14 states had reached the setting pods stage. The five-year average is 6%.

For the week that ended July 6, the condition of the nation’s soybeans was as follows:

  • Good/excellent: 66%
  • Fair: 27%
  • Poor/very poor: 7%

Winter Wheat

The USDA reported that 53% of the winter wheat crop across 17 of the top 18 states had been harvested as of July 6, just shy of the five-year average of 54%.

Only farmers in Montana had not started winter wheat harvest, which is on track with historical trends.

The condition of the nation’s winter wheat crop was as follows:

  • Good/excellent: 48%
  • Fair: 34%
  • Poor/very poor: 18%

With that, the country’s winter wheat condition holds at the lowest rating since the week ending April 20, when just 45% was rated good/excellent.

Spring Wheat

In the six spring wheat-growing states, 61% of the crop had headed as of July 6. That’s ahead of the five-year average of 58%.

The condition of the spring wheat crop was as follows:

  • Good/excellent: 50%
  • Fair: 35%
  • Poor/very poor: 15%

Oats

Across the nine top oat-growing states, 85% of the crop had headed by July 6, ahead of the five-year average of 82%.

The condition of the nation’s oat crop was as follows:

  • Good/excellent: 60%
  • Fair: 25%
  • Poor/very poor: 15%
