The corn has been pushed by the early summer heat and the number of GDU’s. “We’ve got just a little bit of irrigated corn and that’s where it’s showing up the most because usually the irrigated crops lag behind the dryland but with all the heat units we’ve had they’re propelled right along,” said Lance Peterson, who farms at Underwood, Minnesota. “It’s amazing; I’m not that familiar with the Nebraska summers but it almost seems like we’ve had that kind of weather.”
