SoDak Farms - 8/27/2023 20:14  But in decent soils, a dry June wasn't the main problem, which is what multiple western belt folks have been saying for months.




The way I look at it is as follows, the dry May and June weren't a problem in May and June, it became a problem in July and August because we had already used up most of our soil moisture reserves just to get to July.     

So in July when the corn crop is really starting to need lots and lots of water, we were living on just in time rains that didn't always come in time.   If we had got our normal May and June rainfall we would have been in a much better place with sufficient soil moisture to get us through the weeks without rains in July and August.
