I know they seem like an easy target, but I cannot help throwing in my opinion on the weather and crop report. How can you say topsoil moisture is less than adequate with 3 plus inches of rain? I worked in the field and everything probed easily. The topsoil has plenty of moisture for now. We need more moisture to recharge the subsoil. West Southwest Illinois says 34% of corn harvested. That may be a fair number. We seem to be a little behind that in the places I have been, but I have not been everywhere. Yes there is still a little corn that has not reached maturity (black layer) maybe 12% is a good number. 41% of soybeans turning yellow in my area? Could be an OK number. Between Shelbyville and Arcola that number was higher this weekend.
