Crop Comments
Fayette County, Ill.

Disappointed in yields but still not bad for no rain since August 4. Beans 15 under what I hoped for. Corn 20 under what I hoped for. Wheat sowed but a lot is waiting for a rain to come up, maybe 70% stand right now. Not too bad a year for the flash drought we are in.
