Soil, irrigation, spray-window and crop-stress guidance for Illinois, United States.

Field summary

Soil temperatures today read surface 15 °C, 6 cm 16.2 °C, 18 cm 17.3 °C, 54 cm 17.6 °C. Soil moisture sits at 0-1 cm at 0.36 m³/m³, 3-9 cm at 0.36 m³/m³, 27-81 cm at 0.33 m³/m³. For maize, the root-zone reading is above the ideal 0.2-0.35 m³/m³ band. Forecast rain (42 mm) roughly covers crop water demand (ET0 28 mm), so irrigation can likely be paused. A suitable spraying window opens around 06:00 on 2026-06-21, with winds at or below 15 km/h and no rain expected. Projected growing degree days over the next week: maize 63, wheat 102.
