FILE - Soybean plants begin to show signs of growth at Mark Tuttle's soy farm in Somonauk, Illinois, May 30, 2024.

Mark Tuttle planted more soy and less corn on his northern Illinois farm this spring as prices for both crops hover near three-year lows and soybeans' lower production costs offered him the best chance of turning a profit in the country's top soy producing state.
