Wisconsin crops slightly behind but doing well

Wisconsin crops are doing well, but a bit behind schedule.  USDA reporters say 86% of the state’s corn is in the dough stage with 44% now dented.  That’s a week behind last year, but only a day behind average.  Seventy-eight percent of the state’s corn is reported to be good to excellent.

Ninety-five percent of the soybeans are setting pods, and 15% of the soybeans are turning color.  That’s about five days behind average.  Seventy-eight percent of the soybeans are in good to excellent condition.
