Weekly Crop Report

While wet last week, there were a few days still for producers to continue to make headway in the fields, beginning to wrap up this year's planting.

 

Brad Summa, Director of the USDA NAS Heartland Region, indicates in this week's crop report there was around one and a half inches of rainfall this past week, but there were also four days suitable for fieldwork.

 
 
 

Corn planting is just over 80 percent complete, a bit behind the five-year pace, while soybean planting is 75 percent complete, on pace with the five-year average.

 

 

 

 

 

The winter wheat crop remains in mostly good or good to excellent condition.

 
 
 

Rain is in the forecast for most of the middle part of this week.
