Not bad right now, we've had @6-7.5 inches in the last three weeks, all unexpected. Our beans are big enough now that we can flood irrigate them if the rain stops.

Oh, you suck Les,
We can only dream of water that don't drop from the sky. All March, April, and May planted crops are gone. Most all corn is insiled. Early beans are just dead and dry.
My June plantings of milo and soybeans are still hanging in there. I think I wasted 200 acres of Parallel Plus application in late June. Never got a rain on it after laying it down, and as a matter of fact not too sure I got some of the seed in the ground. We never looked back. FCIC is better than PP by a long shot, so whether or not there is a chance, we just made lines in the ground. We didn't have any moisture all winter to speak of, and if it don't rain significantly soon, I think I can kiss the June planted crops goodbye too.
