SYNOPSIS

The recent precipitation events left the soil with high moisture levels, helping double cropping soybean fields to emerge. This particular field was planted about two weeks ago, under drought and without access irrigation, but plants are emerging with high vigor and uniform stand. With more rain on the radar, this particular field has good yield potential at this point.
