Last week at this time, corn planting had yet to get underway in many territories across Latham Country. What a difference one week makes! The U.S. Department of Agriculture reported Monday that 40% of the soybean crop and 84% of the state’s corn crop had been planted as of Sunday. With mostly sunny weather in the forecast through Saturday, we expect much ground to be covered yet this week.
