Planting is nearly complete across the state with 86 percent of Indiana’s corn and 81 percent of the state’s soybeans in the ground. However, late-season frost last Saturday night caused significant damage to corn that’s already been planted north of Fort Wayne. “As far as Noble County right now, it’s basically in God and Mother Nature’s hands,” says Tom Griffiths, a corn and soybean producer based near Kendallville in northeastern Indiana.
