Field Work in Northern Macoupin County

We started the day with rain on the radar nearby.  About 8:30 I looked at the radar and the storms had evaporated.  I went to look at planting progress and do some mapping.  I ended up sampling 160 acres of corn in 4 leaf stage.  I found more cutworm damage although the customer was not terribly worried after he scouted it.  Lots of corn is planted and some have finished and started soybeans.  Some people are doing whatever is driest first.  They have planted some soybeans, but still have corn to plant.  Weather and Crop Report this week is consistent with what I have seen.
