"Corn: By week’s end, 88 percent of the corn crop was at or
beyond the mature stage, 30 percentage points ahead of last year
and 31points ahead of the 5-year average. Cool, dry weather in
most of the corn-producing region allowed for rapid crop
maturation, and provided ample time for fieldwork during the
week. Producers had harvested 39 percent of the nation’s crop by
September 23, twenty-seven percentage points ahead of last year
and 26 points ahead of the 5-year average. In Iowa, harvest
progress was reported as being over 3 weeks ahead of normal,
with the moisture content of harvested corn reported at 18 percent.
Overall, 24 percent of the corn crop was reported in good to
excellent condition, unchanged from last week but 28 percentage
points below the same time last year
