Illinois farmers face heavy losses as the Army Corps estimates 766 900 flooded acres of farmland out of 22 million. Damages are pegged at about 350 million with only partial crops possible. Plowing lags statewide and planting has begun slowly, with southwest and southeast districts hardest hit at 10 to 15 percent planted. Estimates vary by county and field, rainfall and soil type drive wide differences.
