Crop Progress Review of 2010 (Derived from USDA‐NASS reports) third of the state was 9.05 inches above normal An Early Start and Ideal Harvest Conditions precipitation. Statewide, April and May were The 2010 growing season started early slightly below normal for total precipitation, but with above average temperatures in April. The June through September were above normal. warm start aided spring planting and other fieldwork. The month of May began slightly CORN colder than normal and brought frost and snow Corn planting was in full swing by the to the northern and west central parts of the end of April, and by May 30, corn planting was state over Mother’s Day weekend. Although planting and fieldwork continued, the cold reported at 96 percent complete with temperatures hampered crop emergence and emergence at 75 percent. The warmer was detrimental to much of the fruit crop. June temperatures throughout the beginning of June and July brought average temperatures and aided progress, but moisture was still needed. heavy rainfall which left many farmers with By the end of June, a high number of growing flooded fields. Crops growing on lighter, higher degree days and abundant rainfall aided corn soils looked excellent, while crops growing on development. The above normal rainfall heavier, lower soils were lodged and uneven throughout June and July leached some of the nitrogen out of the soil and left some fields due to the stress of excess moisture. August short and uneven. The harvest of corn for silage brought above average temperatures and began for some growers by the end of August, rainfall leaving the soil highly saturated across the state. Soil moisture conditions were rated at well ahead of last year and the five‐year 99 percent adequate to surplus by August 15. average. Corn harvested for grain was well Storms in mid‐August brought flooding to the underway by the end of September, ahead of northeast part of the state and wind damage to the five‐year average, and harvest remained various parts of the state. Colder temperatures ahead for the rest of the season. October and rainfall in September slowed harvest, but brought multiple weeks of dry weather which October brought multiple weeks of dry, sunny allowed harvest to progress rapidly. By October weather which allowed much of the state to 31, corn harvested for grain was 76 percent wrap up harvest by the end of the month. complete, 64 percentage points above 2009 and 33 percentage points above the five‐year Statewide temperatures from June to September were 1.6 degrees above normal in average. Corn harvest continued in November, 2010, reversing the trend from 2009. April however, storage space at local elevators was through August had above normal an issue. Many elevators built temporary temperatures with April averaging 6.6 degrees storage facilities to hold the crop. November above normal. September averaged 1.0 degree wrapped up corn harvest for many with reports below normal. of average to excellent yields. Precipitation and soil moisture varied greatly across the state with total precipitation SOYBEANS for April through September at 31.05 inches. Soybean planting got underway early This was 13.93 inches above the total for 2009 due to above average temperatures in April. By May 2, soybeans planted were 8 percent and 8.72 inches above normal. Total precipitation in the northern third of the state complete, 5 percentage points above the five‐ was 7.22 inches above normal for April through year average. Soybean planting remained above September, the central third of the state was the average throughout May; however, the May 9.62 inches above normal, and the southern frost resulted in some fields being replanted.

Overall, emergence progressed well through June, but the abundant moisture also aided the growth of weeds. Soybean fields were reported as extremely weedy throughout July as the heavy rainfall continued to limit growers from making herbicide applications. Low lying areas were heavily stressed by the end of July from standing water in soybean fields. By the end of August, white mold and some spotty outbreaks of sudden death syndrome appeared in soybean fields around the state. Despite this, overall, soybeans were looking good. Excellent harvesting conditions in October helped growers harvest soybeans at a record pace. By October 24, 95 percent of the crop was reported harvested, 32 percentage points above the five‐year average. Good to excellent yields were reported across the state. SMALL GRAINS Warmer spring temperatures allowed planting of oats to get underway early, and by April 18, growers reported 62 percent of oats were planted, 26 percentage points above the five‐year average. By May 9, planting was 96 percent complete with 72 percent emerged. This was above 2009’s average of 87 percent complete and 55 percent emerged. By June 6, oat condition was reported as 87 percent Good to Excellent. The heavy rain in June and July allowed for abundant weed growth and caused lodging in some oat fields. Oat harvest began earlier than normal with 13 percent reported harvested across the state by July 18, 8 percentage points above the five‐year average. Wet fields throughout August caused some difficulty for harvest and by August 29 oat harvest fell below the five‐year average. Oats harvested for grain wrapped up by the beginning of September. Winter wheat was reported as having minimal damage coming out of winter, and the warmer temperatures throughout April aided growth. By May, dry soils were slowing the growth of winter wheat, but conditions continued to be reported as good to excellent. The abundant moisture in June caused some lodging in wheat fields, and armyworm was

reported to be found in a few areas. Harvest of wheat began in early July, but was slowed due to the rainfall. By August, reports indicated that winter wheat harvest had neared completion statewide, with comments indicating yields ranged from below average to excellent. HAY & PASTURES Alfalfa stands in Wisconsin came out of winter in excellent shape as winter freeze damage to alfalfa was reported as 97 percent none to light. Warmer spring temperatures came early in 2010, allowing hay harvest to get off to an early start. By the end of May, first cutting hay was 40 percent complete, well above the 5‐year average of 17 percent. Wet weather during mid‐June slowed down progress of first cutting hay, and by June 20 first cutting hay harvest was equal to the five‐year average at 78 percent complete. These rains did benefit regrowth of second crop, and yields of second cutting hay were often reported as good to excellent. However, growers were forced to cut between rainstorms and had trouble making dry hay. Despite the constant rain, completion rates for second and third cuttings were close to their five‐year averages. Fourth cutting hay was consistently ahead of the five‐year average, and was reported as 94 percent complete as of October 24. Pastures were productive throughout much of the season. Pasture conditions continually improved each week from 67 percent rated Good to Excellent as of May 30, to 89 percent Good to Excellent as of July 11. Conditions remained above 80 percent Good to Excellent throughout July and August.

Observations and Data Collected STATISTICAL ANALYSIS All data are analyzed using generally accepted statistical tests. In most cases the probabilities of main effects and interactions are shown. The number listed is a percent probability that the effect difference is due to chance (i.e. not due to treatment). A Fisher’s Protected Least Significant Difference (LSD) is calculated for all main effect probabilities of 10 percent or less. Table B-1.
