U-S Winter Wheat Crop Looking Better Than 2014

Another sign of spring - the USDA has released it's first Crop Progress Report for 2015.

No planting figures for corn or soybeans yet.

The USDA says 44 per cent of the crop is rated either good or excellent.

That's 9 points better than at this time last year.
