This week’s theme was focused on pollination concerns. A few corn fields showed signs of incomplete pollination, though it’s difficult to assess the overall impact at this stage. My sense is that it’s not severe enough to affect yields in a major way, but it’s still frustrating, especially given the favorable weather conditions. Many farmers applied soybean fungicide last week, and the beans are looking remarkably clean for this point in the season. Over the weekend, we received another 2 to 3 inches of rain. Most of it soaked in well, but the soil now seems fully saturated.
