Weather and crop report

The new weather and crop report is out.  It shows we are pretty much on schedule with the 5 year average.  I guess that means that wet is the new "normal".  If you remember 2007 or earlier, this still seems wet and late.  Growing degree days appear to be slightly ahead of average, so that is helping corn growth. 

I don't know anyone who is still planning to plant corn so that should be 100% planted in my opinion.  Soybeans % planted my be slightly over estimated.  Most of the wheat south of Springfield is ready or will be ready to harvest any time the weather allows.  Who knows when that will be.
