Western Iowa Crops Hit Hard By Weeds and Drought
Thousands of acres of Missouri river lowland corn are over taken by weeds and abandoned. Only a few fields between the Des Moines and Missouri rivers may yield above 30 bushels per acre, with average production over 30 bushels in the region. Much acreage will produce fodder, despite high week temperatures, while small grains yield well and harvests progress under favorable weather except where rains delay. Some southwest counties still need rain.
