(Radio Iowa) – A majority of the Iowa corn and soybeans planted have already emerged. The U-S-D-A weekly report shows corn planting is virtually done, and just three percent of the soybeans remain to be planted. That report shows 92 percent of the corn has popped out of the ground, which is two days behind normal.

Southwest Iowa lags is the only district under 90 percent emerged at 81 percent. Eighty-eight percent of the soybeans have emerged statewide, which is four days ahead of average.

North-central Iowa leads with 96 percent of the beans already poking out of the ground.
