Nebraska harvest progress

Despite some wintry weather, Nebraska farmers have managed
to harvest much of the state's corn, soybean and sorghum crops.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture reported Monday that 88 percent of corn had
been harvested as of Sunday. That's four days behind last year's harvest and
five day behind the five-year average.

Farmers had harvested 97 percent of Nebraska's soybean crop, which is a little
behind near 100 percent harvests last year and the five-year average.

The sorghum harvest was at 91 percent, a little ahead of last year but behind
the 95 percent five-year average.
