Crop Progress: Nebraska Crops Steady Despite Lingering Moisture Deficits

Jul 09, 2025

While scattered rainfall brought some relief to parts of Nebraska, most row crops remain in the early stages of reproductive development. Corn and soybean progress continues slightly behind average, and producers are closely monitoring fields as July heat sets in. Winter wheat harvest is progressing steadily in southern areas, and pasture conditions reflect both regional drought pressure and recent moisture improvements. According to the USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service, there were 4.9 days suitable for fieldwork in Nebraska during the week ending July 7, 2025.

Topsoil moisture supplies rated 5% very short, 25% short, 63% adequate and 7% surplus. Subsoil moisture rated 10% very short, 33% short, 54% adequate and 3% surplus.
