    Corn problems.

    Not sure how they can pull this one off in the end.

      Chuck, we need you quickly to offer some soothing words about global warming being worse than we thought, and still having a chance to get enough heat units, and long enough growing season to save these crops. Don't let us down, there must be a cut and paste somewhere showing that 2019 is a tipping point, and winters will be a thing of the past starting this year, so this crop can mature into December without frost.

        Maybe honest pictures but the first is hardly representative of an average corn crop on this date. "Knee high by the 4th of July" being the old saying.
        The second picture is more reflective of my corn and other corn in this area. Compared to us the US cornbelt has plenty moisture, gets way more heat than us and winter comes later so I wouldn't worry too much for them.

                Not sure we can draw any conclusions without a location, US corn growing region is big, the difference between Texas and North Dakota is drastic.

                  It’s bad. They need heat like most need rain up here. What was seeded it’s in the best shape and if it keeps raining ain’t gonna get better no matter what the global warming geniuses say.

                              Even around here nw sk early planted corn is just emerged. Later planted fared better. Buddy custom planted a bunch and everyone panicky cause emergence is slow. Soil temp didn’t get to 10c till after May 15 go figure.
