Caption: Many fields appeared to be replanted over the weekend.
Caption: Rain once a week for over a month has caused roots to be shallow during rapid growth.
Caption: Bacterial blight showing up on soybean leaves.
SYNOPSIS

Many were able to get back into the field over the previous weekend to plant the last of a few fields, replant, and make post herbicide applications to early April planted soybeans. Early April planted corn is at V7 and is showing signs of micronutrient deficiency due to shallow root system during the rapid growth phase. Early April soybeans are at V4 and are showing signs of bacterial blight on leaves. We will start to see even more rapid growth of crops in next few days when nighttime temperatures also heat up to the 60’s. There is rain in the forecast again, but it seems to rain here when it is not in the forecast, so it is hard to plan ahead.
