Farmers in Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin, along with solar energy groups, filed a lawsuit Monday in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, suing USDA and department officials over changes to the Rural Energy for America Program (REAP) that plaintiffs argue were done to effectively block funding for nearly all on-farm solar projects.
Midwestern and Plains rainfall delayed grain harvest but improved pasture conditions, especially in Nebraska, while drought persists in parts of the West despite forecast rain.
Corn was 18% harvested, and the remaining crop was rated 57% in good-to-excellent condition as of Sunday, Sept. 27. Soybeans were 17% harvested and were rated 58% in good-to-excellent condition.
