Wet Weather Threatens Corn Crop in Washington County

Washington County farmers were urged to monitor corn fields after heavy rainfall last week. Only about half of the 115,000 expected acres have been planted as more than 3.12 inches fell, delaying work on wet soils. Some areas report over 75 percent planted, while others have little ground in, leaving 10 percent plowing unfinished. Endria spraying may be ineffective due to leaching. farmers should inspect roots in mid June to decide on layby treatment for rootworms.
