Region Updates
After a busy week of finishing up planting, replanting and every other aspect of farming, we received a rain last night that will help us make it through the approaching heatwave.
.35″ of rain last week and we received .9 of rain on 6/13-14.
The soils were still fairly firm after the pounding rains we received 2 weeks ago. But a lot of field activities have been occurring to catch up with how fast this crop is growing.
VE-v4. Soybeans continue to be in their slow growing ugly stage.
VE-v6. The early planted corn gas really taken off and is looking good. The later planted corn really needed this precipitation.
