Planting on the radar for Illinois farmer, but so is more rain

A central Illinois corn and soybean farmer says he is still waiting for a planting window to open.

“Planting has been on the radar for a while, but unfortunately there has been a little too much rain on the radar as well.

Elliott Uphoff of Findlay tells Brownfield they’ve received almost 2 inches of rain in the last week and while it is almost dry enough to plant today (Tuesday) there is more rain in the forecast this week.
