A few wheels have begun to turn in the Corn Belt. But for most producers April is ending the same way it began: cold and wet.

Growers posting Feedback From The Field through the weekend continue to cite inhospitable conditions, from one end of the country to the other.

“Spring wheat planting won't start for week to ten days,” wrote a grower in Montana. “Still have lakes in the field.”

On the other side of the U.S., a North Carolina farmer was planting anyway, estimating 90% of his fields were in.

“Soil temp is a little cool for corn but with more rain in the forecast we must plant,” was the post on Sunday. ”Have been planting in between rain events since the first week of April. A very challenging planting season to say the least.”

Tractors are still parked in central Indiana, where a grower reported soil temperatures of just 37 degrees northeast of Indianapolis. “Cold and wet” was the verdict from another grower west of the Hoosier state capital.
