June 1 Iowa Crop and Weather Report
By Doug Cooper, Extension Communications Specialist
The June 1 Iowa crop and weather report includes interviews with Iowa State University Extension climatologist Elwynn Taylor, integrated pest management specialist Rich Pope, and soybean agronomist Palle Pedersen.

Taylor talks of El Niño's return by early August, which could benefit soybeans more than corn.
