Harvest is running about a week ahead of normal in Iowa.
USDA’s latest weekly crop update says corn harvest is six days ahead of the five-year average at 30 percent complete.
Soybeans are 52 percent harvested, one day faster than a year ago and a week faster than the usual pace.
Western Iowa did receive above average precipitation on the week, but statewide the majority of topsoil and subsoil moisture levels are short to very short.
