Corn futures are rising, and the United States' major regions will experience drought weather.

Corn futures rose for the third consecutive trading day as some areas of the United States are expected to experience dry weather, prompting traders to close out their short positions. The Commodity Weather Group stated that in the next 16 to 30 days, dry weather may affect corn crops in certain regions of the Midwest and East of the US. Despite optimistic expectations for a bountiful corn harvest in the US, farmers are closely monitoring the weather conditions during this crucial growth period. Corn futures prices briefly rose by 1.4%, reaching their highest level in over a week.
