## Resource

Planting is rolling across the Central Corn Belt! Some regions got off to hot starts, while others are still fighting wet conditions. From excellent conditions in parts of Minnesota to challenges in northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin, the weather is playing a significant role this season. In this episode, the Wyffels agronomy team discusses planting progress across Wyffels Country, peeks at the extended forecast, and highlights the Wyffels GDU calculator. Remember, it’s still early, and patience is crucial. Late planting doesn’t mean disaster. There's still time for strong yields!
