Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire How's The Crops In Your Area

Let's have a crop report. This is one of the best looking corn crops here I've ever seen. Most is tasseled out, and with one more good rain, will probably make a very good crop. The full season beans look good too, though they have a long way to go. The drawbacks here are the wheat and doublecrop beans. It has rained a lot in the past 2 weeks, and some of the farmers are still combining wheat, and have yet to plant the beans behind their wheat.

Also, tobacco is a crop that does not need a lot of water, and some of it has suffered from too much rain, and also from some of the hail that's also been a problem. But, all in all, crops look pretty good. I'll try and post some pics sometime soon.

Here in North Dakota it’s looking great. Just got a good rain up here near the Canadian border. Temps in the 70s. Edk

Lot’s of hay!

Lets see what a crop of tobacco looks like.

Drove through farm country here yesterday.

Everything looked good, from what I passed.

Corn was tall and strong. Starting to yellow.

Milo was tall and had big heads.

Cotton was green and waist high.

Going to have good hay if it dries up enough to bale it.

This is from last year.....burley tobacco

Dark fired tobacco....cured with fire and smoke, used for chewing tobacco and snuff

Eastern 1/3 of ND things are 2-3wks behind, just haven't had enough heat. There's enough water though, get some mid-80's temps and it'll grow so fast you'll be able to watch it.

Drove from eastern ND to far SW SD this week. The western half of both states are GREEN and everything that can hold water is FULL. Could just barely see the Antelope kids heads sticking up above the grass in pastures and the crops are LUSH.

I have never seen tobacco before, thanks JamesJr.

Good here, we have been getting rain, but not too much.

In western Iowa the corn looks good, the soybeans are small. Southern Minnesota looks bad, a lot of unplanted ground.

Here in SE Nebraska things look pretty good considering all the rain...corn and beans are behind some...lots of acres unplanted due to flooding and wet spots...yealds will be down some as I think we had some nitrogen loss in the corn and beans were late planted..
Grass is growing well and alfalfa is lookin great...

A lot of the fields around here arn't even plowed yet due to all the rain we had. General rule of thumb up here for corn is "Knee high by the fourth of July"............Ain 't gonna happen this year.

Hopefully there is a little extra time at the end of the growing season this year.

Colorado is ok. Late start on somethings.

The big crops around here are apple/cherry/apricot/peach orchards, they seem ok and will be ok so long as we dont get a big hail.
The other huge crop around here is weed, legal now up here, most of it is indoors.

Late start here in Vermont due to cold wet spring. Most of the cow corn crops were late in getting in and are just starting to grow. Everything is behind

Southwest VA, good hay crop, some second cutting started, corn average to good, late start. A few people trying commercial hemp for the first time here, lots of people watching.

Where the fields have good drainage great, fields next to rivers or in low areas stunted or they've been too wet to get a tractor into. Much more rain than normal for May and June.

Cotton is 38-42” tall and doing good if these rains stay timely. Dark green and a few flowers popping
Rice is great Damn near too much water
