Looking over my Illinois weather and crop report it is difficult to dispute anything. The possible exception is wheat planted. At least in our area, I think 90% of the wheat is planted. Yes there are always some dragging behind. I find it hard to believe that our corn and soybean harvest is lagging behind 2010 a bit. That number is not really significant.
We had 2.5 inches of rain today and things in my immediate area look very wet. I was at West Alton today and my customer said it only rain a tenth of an inch. The lightening sent me home. It seemed like every cloud no matter how small had a little shower in it. Topsoil moisture in the report is still 23% Short and very short. That is hard to believe, but the number is getting smaller.
