Fieldwork disruptions should remain minor this week, with scattered showers and mostly above-normal temperatures across much of the country, according to DTN Ag Meteorologist John Baranick. #CropProgressReport #Corn #Soybeans #Weather
The nation's corn harvest remains behind its five-year average, while soybean harvest is running slightly ahead, according to USDA NASS's weekly #CropProgressReport released today. DTN Content Editor @ellareiff reports 🔗 dtn.link/7ztjrkko

NASS estimated that 33% of corn had been harvested nationally as of Oct. 11, 6 percentage points behind the five-year average of 39%, and 46% of soybeans had been harvested, 4 percentage points behind the five-year average of 50%.
A week of dry weather helped farmers advance corn and soybean harvests, though both remained slightly behind the five-year average, according to USDA NASS's weekly #CropProgressReport released Tuesday. The report, which is normally released on Mondays, was delayed this week due to the Columbus Day holiday. Content Editor @ellareiff reports 🔗 dtn.link/g3l09he1

The national corn crop continued its downward trend last week, with its good-to-excellent rating dropping 3 percentage points, while soybean ratings also declined, according to USDA NASS's weekly Crop Progress report released Monday. #CropProgress #Corn #Soybeans
Corn and soybean ratings both declined last week, according to USDA NASS's weekly #CropProgressReport released on Monday. Corn was 86% in the dough stage, 45% dented, mature was 6% and 57% of the crop was rated in good-to-excellent condition. DTN Content Editor @ellareiff reports: dtn.link/wnkqwpfd

@PlantCoverCrops Surprisingly, Indiana’s ratings didn’t drop as much as I expected. I would assume the weather events were already reflected in last week’s report.

I talked with farmers, agronomists and Purdue Extension specialists across Indiana about this year’s corn and soybean crops. The takeaway? Localized and variable. Here’s what they’re seeing in the fields. ⬇️ #corn #soybeans #yield #Indiana
Indiana's corn and soybean crops have been shaped by highly localized weather this year, with heavy rainfall creating challenges in some areas while other fields have maintained strong yield potential.

Fingers crossed the rain stays away, so we can wrap up corn and soybean planting this week in northern Indiana. @AgVentureInc #plant2026 #AgVenture

And early Tuesday morning, Jan. 27, I found out it's closing. The Agricultural Education program continues, but the Communication side is done and closing in June. #Purdue #PurdueUniversity
Purdue Agricultural Sciences Education and Communication Department is closing due to low enrollment. “Everything I am professionally, so much of who I am personally — it traces back to those three years in that department. To those hallways. To those people. The career I have today? I wouldn't have it without ASEC” says @ellareiff Read more: bit.ly/4t5RFfP
