Stop 8 Carroll County, IA

First rain sighting! It literally rained semi hard while we were at the farm. Stopped immediately after we got out of the field and I was soaked!

This is a very rolling area of Western Iowa. It is average soil productivity. The corn looked good but the stand was a little low at 24,426. I would say that was not representative of the area or the rest of the field. Corn was at V6-v7. The rating would be a 7 only due to plant pop. The field was not stressed at all. The soil was fairly dry and I sure the growers would take an all day soaker!

That will be the last crop stop for the day. We are about 90 minutes Northeast of Omaha and getting closer to the college World Series. Go Kent State, I mean go Florida State....who am I kidding...I don't care who wins just want to see a good game.
