Weather: Cool and damp.
Corn: Combines were in cornfields Friday and Saturday. We are about 25-30% harvested in the county.
Soybeans: Soybeans are 98% harvested. Production was very good, particularly considering late planting and very dry growing period (50-65 bu. per acre).
Wheat: Much of the wheat was planted late due to late soybean harvest. Some wheat fields have bare spots due to heavy rains. Wheat is growing slowly.
Forages: Some hay fields were cut late. I hope they have enough root reserves to live through the winter.
Soil Moisture: Very adequate to excessive.
Other Comments: Many fields being tiled presently and manure being spread before freeze up.
