I meant to add to you IG that the corn is very much behind in size and maturity from what we saw near daughters residence.
Wet wet fields, corn just starting up, some planting not done. Corn maturity seemed to really be noticeably delayed in western IL and continued to be stunted and behind as we traversed on west.
The western cornbelt was late to plant due to wet fields.
Some roads in Iowa are closed again today due to high water. I would imagine some farmers are going to go the “Prevented Planting” route. I’ve heard the late freeze did a number on emerged corn in Northern MO, but haven’t been out that way to see for myself.
