Soybeans maturing |
Soil Consulting and Crop Consulting in Illinois. You may call it soil testing, soil sampling, or soil health management, but it is more than that. These are my daily or weekly travels in soil and crop consulting and my observations in the agricultural world.

Crop Progress and Soil Condition
I am seeing lots of soybeans that look like the ones below. It looks like maybe 10 days till harvest. Corn harvest has been slow because of rain. It looks like we may be 50% done. Some farmers will get done with corn this week and get a break before soybeans. I expect to see lots of combines in the field tomorrow. A few were going this afternoon.
There are still a lot of crop reporters still saying topsoil moisture is short. Our topsoil moisture is good to excess. You can see the standing water in this low spot and ruts were cut by the combine.
