The warm and drier weather is giving producers a chance to make a lot of planting progress.

There was on average five and a half days suitable for fieldwork, which was good news for farmers says crop statistician Matt Russell.

63% of winter wheat is rated in good to excellent condition, an improvement over last week. 48% of the wheat is headed.

Russell gives an update on soybeans.

Average statewide topsoil moisture is nearly unchanged at one percent very short, 14% short, 79% adequate and 6% surplus.
