 PLANTING OF COTTON AND SOYBEANS IN FULL SWING

Heavy rainfall at mid-week hampered field work. Corn producers were winding down their planting, while cotton and soybean planting continued early in the week. Wheat and pastures continue to flourish from adequate moisture. Pastures are in mostly fair to good condition. Topsoil moisture levels were rated 6 percent short, 72 percent adequate and 22 percent surplus. Subsoil moisture levels were rated 6 percent short, 79 percent adequate, and 15 percent surplus. There were 3.5 days suitable for field work last week. For more details click on Crop Progress 5 18 14.
