Progress Report

Corn planting seems to be following no clear pattern this year.  We have had to walk a field here and there that was planted earlyThe earliest planted corn will be tasseling by July 4.  There is not much of that.  I walked some that was thigh high today.  I think the rain this weekend ended any plans for more corn planting, but there might be a bit going in. 

Soybean planting should be done soon, but there are still fields to plant.  Most soybeans are in the bifoliate stage, but I saw some near Greenfield yesterday that have their second or third trifoliate.  They looked really good. 

Wheat is turning, but stems are still green.  We are seeing some scab and some leaf diseases. I expect decent wheat yields, but maybe not great if it did not get fungicide. 

One of our vegetable growers has fresh tomatoes already.  Stuckmeyer Plants.
