Production is forecast higher due to favorable weather throughout most of the growing season. Production is forecast higher based on increases in harvested area and yield. The majority of the increase is a result of improved soybean pod development and weight from favorable weather late in the growing season. French rapeseed and sunflowerseed yields are up due to good growing conditions. Good weather also benefitted the Italian soybean yield and the sunflowerseed harvested area.
