Caption: Estimating corn yields now that pollination is complete
SYNOPSIS

Crop conditions are good. Soybeans are looking better than the corn on average. Lots of tip back in the corn but there are bigger kernels than usual so the yield drop may not be as bad.

WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING BEST DESCRIBES CURRENT CONDITIONS IN THIS COUNTY?
Moderately Wet (soil is damp, standing water may be present in low areas, water bodies are full)
IF CONDITIONS ARE ON THE DRY END, WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING US DROUGHT MONITOR CATEGORIES BEST FIT CURRENT CONDITIONS
Near Normal (Dnada)
WEATHER

Sunny and 90 degress

PRECIPITATION

None today

FIELD/SOIL CONDITIONS

Wetter than normal. Some water standing in compacted areas

FIELD ACTIVITIES

Some later planted beans are getting fungicide, other than that, not much.

WEEDS

Waterhemp is starting to come through I most bean fields. The dryer weather during herbicide applications I think has caused some of this due to lack of activation.

DISEASES

Little to no disease in corn. Small amounts of northern corn leaf blight and some grey leaf spot
