For the past month, inconsistent rain has fallen across the state of Wisconsin, causing drought conditions to worsen and crops to emerge unevenly.  Wisconsin Farm Bureau president Kevin Krentz says small pockets of variable rain have fallen in the state. Near his dairy and crop farm in Berlin, Wisconsin he's seen as much as a foot difference between crops growing in the same field. According to the July 3 Crop Progress report, the state has received scattered storms as the calendar turned to July, helping crop conditions improve.
