Sod Buster's Crop Report:Scattered showers continued this week but many areas became increasingly dry. Days suitable for field work were 5.3. Average precipitation remained below normal at 1.46 inches, and average temperature was a below-normal 68 degrees. Overall, the recent rains did not provide enough moisture to
completely offset the previous months of dry conditions. Lack of moisture and warm temperatures have slowed pasture growth, with continuously grazed
pastures in especially troublesome condition. Although some pastures and hay fields have improved, producers fear that the feed from these fields
may fall short of cattle needs. The first cutting of hay is almost complete. Hay quality is reported to be good, but yields are reported to
be low. Reports show corn and soybean crops are off to a good start. Where rain occurred, the crops benefited, while elsewhere crops are
beginning to show signs of stress.
Tomato plants are maturing, and many summer vegetables are beginning to ripen. Other farm activities this week included spraying herbicides, baling straw, scouting fields, and preparing for fall vegetable planting.
