Forages are quickly growing, but haying continues slowly with some ensiling because of the frequent moisture.
EASTERN
Rainfall accumulations were minimal, and much needed good drying weather prevailed.
First pass herbicide applications are complete, and fungicide applications targeting fusarium head blight suppression continues. However, up to 25 percent of spraying may be cancelled in northern fields because of yield potential loss.
Most of the harvested hay has been put into silage because of wet conditions.
INTERLAKE
Most precipitation came in one day’s storm and ranged from five to 35 mm.
Fungicide applications by air are occurring to avoid field ruts, but some producers will not spray because of poor crop conditions.
