Subject: RE: Yields please


Do you want the yields before or after the corn hit the ground? Finished shelling the areas of white corn that fell, I would guess these came in at 130, but they should have yielded 150+.This is with a 70 - 90% lodge rate.

EDIT: Last year corn averaged 160.

Moisture is anywhere from 20 to 30%. Going to start in on the downed yellow corn tomorrow. The yields will most likely be the same. O

Too much wet weather followed by DRY DRY DRY.

Beans are not going to be worth, well a hill of beans. No guess yet, most are still green. DC beans will be EXTREMLY low because of the lack of moisture.

I'm very sympathetic to those of you who have down corn, it hit us hard too. Never really seen corn that flat!!

Maybe next year will be better!!
