The recent rain systems that have moved through much of West Central Illinois have helped to replenish our soil moisture. Soybeans are showing to be mainly in the V3-V5 stage and corn is between V2-V6 with the differences largely being planting date. Main field activities are post emergence applications. We are seeing some weed pressure in the region, mainly waterhemp and giant ragweed. We have seen some replants across the region but largely the fields are looking good. We are on-par, or close to, with 2020-2024 average crop progress and conditions. Looking at the upcoming forecast, we should have mainly dry conditions until this weekend and into next week which should allow field work to continue and crops to progress.
