Effingham County, Illinois, poor corn crop yield

AFFECTED AREAS:
Effingham County, IL

Start Date: 7/5/2012 - End Date: 7/5/2012
We began chopping our corn crop for silage to feed the animals on July 1st. Two other farmers in the area have begun doing the same. The corn in our area has not produced corn cobs and will likely yield nothing. The only areas that appear to be salvageable are low-lying areas near creeks and rivers. CoCoRaHS Report from Station #Effingham 6.7 N on 7/5/2012
