With more rain that rolled through Illinois this week, planting progress is slowly but surely getting wrapped up.

Just half the week was suitable for fieldwork. State Crop Statistician Mark Schluessner says rainfall totals were below average and excess soil moisture was down from last week.

Corn planting is nearly two-thirds complete while soybeans are just short of 60 percent planted.

Pasture conditions improved from last week with 85 percent in good to excellent condition. With still planting going on in Illinois, be on the lookout for those implements on rural roadways.
