Des Moines reports corn planting slightly ahead of normal by week’s end though sunshine and warmer weather are needed for early fields. The bulletin notes 57 percent planted by May 31, with replanting likely higher than usual due to cutworms and wireworms. Seventeen percent of acreage cultivated for the first time, versus 8 percent last year and 26 percent by early June.
