Corn and soybeans have been mostly planted in Iowa, according to the latest Crop Progress and Conditions report from the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
The report shows 5.1 suitable days of fieldwork last week, where almost all corn and 97-percent of soybeans were planted. Landus Cooperative Field Agronomist Zach Minnihan says all expected crops have been planted across Greene County. Minnihan notes that recent rainfall and cooler temperatures bodes well for crop production.
“Definitely this cooler weather and more storms kind of coming in now it’s going to be really nice for the crops because it’s going to start really taking off. This is where it gets into – especially for corn – it starts really taking nitrogen out of the ground and growing fast. So having ideal growing conditions (for) this time frame of the crop is pretty critical.”
The Crop Progress and Conditions report also showed planted corn was rated 85-percent good to excellent and soybeans were 82-percent good to excellent. Minnihan doesn’t believe any crops will need to be replanted.
