Everything was planted in a timely fashion, and although it was dry, everyone seemed pleasantly surprised at the yields we had around here. Harvest went very quickly, and folks were able to get a lot of their fall field work done. We were blessed to get timely rains when we needed them. I kn…
There are some fields left, but for the most part it’s finished. Field work has been getting done, though this cold snap will slow it down some. Next week sounds like it’s going to warm up for a bit, and some more field work will probably get snuck in. We have had a bit more than an inch of …
Crops are all out. Lots of anhydrous being applied. Manure guys ahead of schedule, but the cold weather is now slowing things down. Most field work that needs completed this fall is wrapping up. A lot of lime is being applied. Everyone in the area is happy with the results.
Everything is pretty much wrapped up for harvest. Everyone is a week or two ahead on post-harvest work. We had a half-inch of rain Friday, which was nice. In general, people seem happy with corn yields. They have been really consistent. Bean yields are all over the place, however. You hear a…
It looks like harvest is wrapping up. Some of the bigger farmers still have quite a bit to do, but most are done or close to being done. I haven’t seen any anhydrous going on, but there is some field work being done. We got three-tenths of an inch of rain last week, but it only kept people o…
Harvest is moving along. Beans are done. I saw a lot of corn in the field along Highway 30 toward Omaha. Yields still sound decent, but it’s very dry. Some are starting on field work, and others are applying manure. People have plenty to do and are keeping busy.
Harvest is rolling right along. Most of the soybeans are done, and a lot of guys are completely finished with harvest. Harvest is moving along faster than a year ago. A lot of manure has been applied. We had a little bit of moisture last week, but not enough to slow anyone down for long.
Everyone got stopped by a shower last week but only for an afternoon. Some folks are wrapping up beans, while others are going on corn. We’ve had two weeks of great weather to get things done. There aren’t many beans left, and guys are really rocking and rolling on the corn. The 10-day forec…
Everyone is really getting after harvest. The weather has been great and most seem pretty happy with bean yields so far. Yields have been a pleasant surprise, with 60 to 70 bushels hitting a lot of it. A few farmers are working on corn, but it’s early yet. If this weather forecast holds, a l…
There are a lot of beans coming out around here, and some are also out harvesting corn. Some bean fields are still pretty green too. I haven’t heard of any disappointing yields yet, but everyone is just getting going. With the dry forecast, harvest should really kick into gear in the coming week.
It’s really foggy this morning (Monday), and we had another inch of rain over the weekend. I would guess people will start getting after beans this week. I’ve seen a few harvesting wet corn for cattle lots. Once they start going, others will soon follow. Corn should start drying out with tem…
We got some rain Saturday, and that inch of rain has really helped push things along. Beans are turning, and you have those fields of yellow and green everywhere. The corn is starting to dry down. I would think in a couple of weeks that we will see harvest rolling in our area.
The crops are still looking good in our area. I had a pork board meeting last week, and it sounds like the area between Highway 20 and Highway 30 is the sweet spot for crops. Soybeans are turning more quickly, and the corn is starting to fire. I would say bean harvest will be starting in thr…
We had a warm week and got some moisture, so things look really good in the Carroll area. But it’s dry to the north and dry to the south. I think we will really start to see soybeans turning in the next week or so. The corn looks pretty good. We’re fortunate that we’ve been getting timely ra…
We got some rain last week, so it hasn’t been too bad of a week. It wasn’t enough, but anywhere from a half-inch to an inch. Things haven’t been too bad around here, but north of here they’ve had a few more problems. Everyone is getting equipment ready. The main thing people have been strugg…
It looks like some rain is coming in today (Monday), so we are hopeful. The crop is really starting to get dry, and an inch or 2 of rain should help push everything along. I have not seen anyone spraying in our area, so that’s pretty much done. The crop is still mostly green, but the weather…
We had scattered showers over the weekend, with a quarter to half an inch of rain. It’s a nice cool day today, but warming up later in the week. The crop was starting to show some heat stress, but this rain will help out quite a bit. It looks like a few guys are getting ready to chop silage.…
We had no rain last week, and it’s getting pretty dry. The corn is not curling, but it looks like a hot week ahead with lows near 80 each day. Guys are out taking care of weeds at the moment, but there hasn’t been much to do with insects since there doesn’t seem to be an issue yet.
We had a quick rain roll through Saturday night, but there wasn’t much to it. Crops still look pretty decent despite a hot, dry week. It’s supposed to be somewhat cool this week, which should give the crop a nice break from the heat and wind. Some hay is still being baled, and the planes hav…
We had no rain last week, and the forecast is hot and dry for the next couple of weeks. The crop looks really good in the Carroll area, but it’s much more dry to the north. Everything is still green, but in the sandy soil to the south, you can see some stress. The corn is tasseling and like …
We had some high winds go through early this morning (July 11). There is a lot of tree damage, and there is wind stress in the corn. Power is out in town. We did get an inch of rain out of it as well as from the July 5 derecho. Crops are looking decent. Some corn is starting to tassel. Hopef…
It’s getting dry around here. We definitely need some rain, and there are several chances in the forecast. The crops are still looking good. A lot of hay has been cut and baled, and most are wrapping up with spraying. I think the corn has been taller, but I would say it’s 4-feet tall in most…
Everything looks good. We did get some rain last week along with hot weather, and then beautiful weather over the weekend. There is a chance of rain this week, and we will need some moisture. The weather has been really good for cutting and baling hay, and a lot of that got done last week. I…
The corn really shot up last week with the heat. Everything is growing like crazy. We had some rain early last week followed by temperatures in the 90s. A lot of hay has been cut. Everyone seems to be done with spraying. We really have ideal conditions at the moment.
We are getting the right amounts of rain, so the crop is looking pretty good. Now that we are finally getting some heat, that should push everything along. The first spraying is mostly done, and the second spraying should be coming. Side-dressing appears to be done. With this heat in the for…
