Original Note:
The smaller totals are due partially to a drought *and cold snap* (which was mentioned by the linked Reuters article), and partially because of perverse insurance incentives rewarding abandonment (which was not). Total wheat yields are estimated at being at 93% of 2022's. https://www.agweb.com/news/crops/wheat/wheat-tour-finds-drought-freeze-robbed-more-wheat-expected-surprisingly-high
