Subject: Re: Test weight vs. USDA yield projections


I'm not exactly sure how your 07 test weight was ligther then your 08 but thats the exact opposite of what we had in them years in NE iowa. We had 57-60 in 07 and around 54/55 in 08. I don't agree just because the crop is ahead of normal and above normal temps we will have light testweight. Last year was the revese of this and we had terrible test weights. The heat iowa is seeing is with plenty of mositure and its not exessive heat(yet) I think test weights will be great this year, maybe close to 60 in some numbers. Also there was a post in crop talk not to long about about early harvest test weights down south and they were in that 60lb range also.
