Ames IA Garren Benson extension agronomist at Iowa State University reports subsoil moisture in 18 northwest counties and two in the southwest is unfavorable for 1975 crop prospects. Most of the eastern half shows near normal moisture, with 5 to 7 inches in large areas and above 7 inches in eastern Iowa indicating good prospects. Hay and pasture face disease and winterkill risks from past wet springs, but good moisture reserves should aid early yields with rainfall dictating late-season results.
