Recent rainfall improved soil moisture and accelerated pasture growth. Perennial grasses and weeds responded quickly, though high fertilizer costs limited applications. Wheat advanced rapidly toward maturity, while corn recovered from earlier freeze damage. Cotton establishment remained uneven due to cool, wet conditions. Pecan trees showed strong development. Insect and disease pressure in wheat declined and was not expected to impact yields. Livestock remained in good condition, supported by improving forage and strong markets.
