We got maybe 300 acres all came up then next 400 is a huge mess.no hay baled,no soybeans in the soil,wheat might be bad too wet.here in southwest mo we started last month 2" over on rainfall ended 17" plus the 2 from april.
I think how bad we got it but dont go far to see more worse off.tornados,1 hit just missing my place.only tree damage.2 days later another 1 hit,killed a friends mom n dad.lots of grain bins destroyed barns and machinery destroyed.
This year has become a CHALLENGE.i feel for everybody

It's a tough time. You have my sympathies for everything you're going through. Here in SD things are looking a little better finally with some sun and warmer temps. Corn is over a month behind. Virtually no beans planted as of last week. Only good thing is the cows are finally out of the mud in the tallest grass we've seen in many years.

Stay strong. Sounds like everyone is in about the same boat this year. Literally.
 
Yup, rough over here in my part of MN too, second bad wet year in a row, last year was maybe worst but a much smaller area a few counties around me.

Three years ago we got a couple tenths every 2 days that was a long miserable year to spray or make hay was really wet.

Four years ago we had a very wet spring, it got better for most but my farm was dead center on a microburst that dropped 5 inches in one hour on already ponding fields. Pretty much a washout of a year, only affected a 10 mile long 2 mile wide area tho.

I?m so miserably sick of rain.

We haven't had any significant rain in over a week now. Yesterday some went past just a mile or so south of me. I could have used that actually, still wet here but I have a crust that could use a shower to soften it. I'm going to have two crops this year too as some isn't up yet. Might get some rain on Sunday, that should help. Funny, it's still wet and I'm hoping for rain. Lol
