Many farmers may be just about ready to wrap up their corn and soybean planting thanks to this stretch of pretty darn good weather. Marshall County farmer Ethan Crow is among those hoping to possibly be done this weekend. Compared to 2019 when the rains had farmers still planting in June, this, he says, has been wonderful.

Crow adds another couple of inches of rain would certainly help, especially once all the seed is in the ground. Meanwhile, farmers are keeping one eye on the fields and the other on very high market prices.
