Harvest pace is cruising

Michigan continues to see split moisture levels as rain caused delays on and off last week.  Portions of the eastern Lower Peninsula and southwestern Upper Peninsula are abnormally dry.

The USDA says corn is now 60 percent harvested for grain and soybeans are 89 percent, both ahead of last year and the five-year average.  Sugarbeets are 71 percent harvested.

Winter wheat planting is nearly finished with 91 percent emerged.
