Definitely some kinks so far in #CropWatch20.Indiana #soybeans will be fully replanted Mon-Tue due to earlier frost/freeze damage.290 acre North Dakota #corn field will only have 25 acres planted. The rest will be PP.Slow growth in Minn, Iowa, Neb from cooler temps.
The North Dakota grower planted 1,100 acres of #corn last year but will only have 120 this year. Insurance date is Monday & there's no incentive to plant beyond that date. Field conditions have improved in recent days. That should continue, so #soybeans might have better luck.
It would be unfair to only point out the negative, though. The Illinois #CropWatch20 fields are looking the best they ever have at this early stage in the 4 years that we have been watching them.
