Corn Planting Delayed Across State Due to Weather
Farmers report widespread delay in corn planting as of June 30 1957 with excessive rains and floods blamed. United States wheat output for 1957 forecast at 971 million bushels, about three percent below 1956 and 14 percent under the long term average. Pasture conditions on June 30 reached 88 percent of normal, the best June 30 reading since 1952. Intermittent rains hinder chopping and complicate weed control as worm populations rise in some areas. A week of good weather could restore progress and bring chopping back to normal.
