Illinois River Bottoms

I worked in the Illinois River Bottoms of Scott County just north of Hillview. Between here and there I would estimated 50 to 60% of corn is planted. Planting is a little further along in the bottom than on the upland. We do know of some that are done or will finish tomorrow. Others are still putting on Nitrogen. If you have a guidance system, I would not worry about planting the corn first and coming back later with the Nitrogen.

Weather and crop report says 34% of the crop is planted. In our area it is a little more than that.
