Rain kept Wisconsin farmers out of the fields for much of the week, but it did help replenish soil moisture levels. USDA says topsoil moisture is n ow rated 16% surplus, 71% adequate, 10% short, and 3% very short, with subsoil moisture at 8% surplus, 62% adequate, 23% short, and 7% very short. Most of Wisconsin received at least one inch of rain last week, with a band across central Wisconsin receiving more than five inches of rain.
