(Radio Iowa) Farmers used some dry weather to move into full harvest mode last week.
The USDA says five percent of the statewide corn harvest is now complete — which is five days behind last year and one day behind the five-year average. The corn condition remained 64 percent good to excellent condition. The report says seven percent of the soybeans are in the bin. That is four days behind last year and three days behind the average. The soybean condition was rated 62 percent good to excellent.
