SYNOPSIS
Since last week’s update most of the region received 2”-5” of rain, so no planting has taken place.
Pictured here is a typical corn field planted on Memorial Day weekend, currently at V3, decent emergence during our relatively dry 3 week span, but some yellowing as a result of waterlogged soils.
First crop beans are still only partially planted, the typical field that did get in the ground is around VC-V2.
A typical wheat field in Marion county, largely golden, a few greens spots still remaining, grain is in dough stage.
WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING BEST DESCRIBES CURRENT CONDITIONS IN THIS COUNTY?
