Inspections of corn, beans, and wheat for offshore delivery all declined week over week. Corn assessments in the seven days that ended on July 10 totaled 1.29 million metric tons. That’s down from 1.56 million tons the previous week, but still ahead of the 1.1 million tons inspected during the same week a year ago. Soybean inspections totaled 147,045 tons, down from almost 400,000 tons the prior week and 175,300 tons at the same point last year. Wheat examinations for export dropped to 439,533 metric tons from more than 522,000 tons the previous week and 622,300 tons a year earlier. Since the start of the marketing year, the USDA has inspected 57.8 million metric tons of corn, 46.4 million tons of soybeans, and wheat inspections since June 1 are now at 2.28 million metric tons. Corn and soybean inspection totals are higher, and the wheat total is lower than last year.
