DOUGLAS B. GUCKER UPDATES
Some very welcome rains have been received over the past week with totals varying from less than 1″ to nearly 3″ in my 3-county area. Corn and soybean fields are being harvested with yields being reported as good. If you are planning on letting your corn dry in the field, please check those fields for their standability. and whether they need to be harvested earlier rather than later. I ran across an area where the corn fields had suffered weather stress issues during the growing season and the stalk quality was not great (see photo).
