CEO Comments:
Hello Summer! The 2021 planting season got off to a fast start with widely fluctuating temperatures and little rainfall across much of our association’s territory…but that changed recently! Stands of most commodities are reported to be in decent condition (although apples, cherries, and grapes were significantly impacted from freezing temperatures in May) with corn in Michigan rated 86% good to fair and Wisconsin at 78%, as I write this. Soybean plantings are running ahead of the five-year average in both states with similar conditions for those that have emerged with 81% of the stand in Wisconsin at good to fair versus 85% in Michigan.
