E.C. Iowa: it is kind of hard for us around me to read what a lot of you are going through when things look like they do here . Don't get me wrong, not every field looks good to excellent,but we are doing a lot better than most. For comparison,went by the local golf course and seen the the sprinklers running at dusk. Like I stated earlier, in 10-14 days we may be praying for rain! Corn has gone through it's "ugly stage" as I call it.last week some of the corn was hitting the nitrogen zone and some wasn't. 2nd pass corn is in full swing as is 1st crop hay. Last week we were supposed to get 2-4" of rain, received less that 2/10's, while other got the 2-4". Like other of you guy's have said, think about those who are not as fortunate. Picture is of 15" corn planted may 1st and the other is 30" corn planted may 17th.
