Market observers look at the weather in the US growing regions for maize and soya Corn and soy are located in the United States from mid/late July to August into a yield-critical growth stage of Blüh - / pollination and grain filling phase. Adverse weather conditions can significantly influence the future harvest result. The U.S. corn crop has a significant weight at the world level with a share of more than 35% at the world level . Also the U.S. soy crop is about 30% market share in the forefront. Therefore the upcoming weather development in the priority areas of the U.S. corn - and soybean-growing attention wins the market observers.

High temperatures of around 30 degrees Celsius brand drive plant growth quickly . Almost one could speak of greenhouse climate. But the high temperatures on the large leaf surface also cause one rapid evaporation rate. Therefore precipitation is necessary after several days of sunshine again, to replenish the ground water supply. The WEtter forecasts predict however July only little to no precipitation until the end of the month. At the same time is assumed by sustained high temperatures . The regional focus of cultivation for corn and soy are affected. Will this development should indeed be, be expected to yield loss. The Blüh - and pollination phase is the first sensitive hurdle for yield. The subsequent grain filling phase also needs sufficient water, so that the nutrients in plants can be transported to the grain facilities. Aggravated matters, that this year La Niña weather with dryness in this area is imminent. Usually Niña will be well in the late summer in appearance. However, onset and intensity of this event are not predictable. On the stock exchanges, observing the actual weather with Argus eyes, and only limited reliable weather forecasts.
