SYNOPSIS

Southern Illinois is wet. SIUC’s Belleville Research Center has measured over 12″ of rain so far in July, with >6″ coming Monday of this week. Fields that aren’t flooded are still heavily waterlogged. Most corn fields are at VT/Silking. About a quarter of fields were still in vegetative stages and one field with browning silks but that was an outlier. First crop soybeans are either starting to flower or are fully in R2 already. Double crop soybeans are V3-V4 and trying to get above the wheat stubble.
