After a productive Memorial Day weekend we were once again greeted with more rain. We have had about 3/4" to 1.5" on most of our farms. We have reached the half way point for planting but still do not have a lot of dry fields. One bright side to the rain is it helped the corn that was planted before the 4" rain two weeks ago. Several fields were crusted over and starting to leaf out underground. Those fields will probably have uneven emergence and decreased plant populations, but at least there is some corn out there. If we can keep from getting too much more rain we should be back in the field this weekend.
