A pair of field agronomists with Iowa State University Extension and Outreach say crop conditions are a mixed bag across the state.
Angie Rieck-Hinz is based in north-central Iowa, and tells Brownfield some fields are wet and some are dry. “We get a lot of rain in that Worth County, Mason City, Cerro Gordo County, and northern Franklin County. Those crops look fantastic,” Rieck-Hinz said. “You don’t have to go very far west and it’s a different story.”
Central Iowa agronomist Meaghan Anderson says farmers in her part of the state are optimistic.
