| As of midnight, Des Moines, IA has accumulated 165 stress degree days since June 1, 2016. According to ISU climatologist Elwynn Taylor (http://crops.extension.iastate.edu/cropnews/2012/07/water-stress-corn-estimating-stress-degree-days-sdd) trend line yields are difficult to come by in years with stress degree accumulation over 140. Food for thought as we move into late July and early August.
Others to consider:
Ames, IA 112
Norfolk, NE 113
Souix City, IA 170
Keokuk, IA 116
Nebraska City, NE 192
Lincoln, IL 107
