DTN 360 Poll

How do you view the cumulative rainfall in your area since April 1 and the effect on crop development?

Our area has faced excessive precipitation that is detrimental for crop development.
Precipitation has been favorable to-date and crops are thriving.
This has been an average year for us, for precipitation and how it has affected crops.
Our area lacks precipitation -- we need more!
Our area has so little rain, the crops are probably a write-off.
It's too soon to tell, while the effects vary by crop.
Rainfall is not our main weather concern, it's wind/ hail/lack of or too much heat that has been an issue for our area.
