After a rough start in a year which had a severe impact on our corn crop, the soybean crop is actually looking pretty impressive.  More folks are reporting above normal yields and very decent wheat bean yields.  I have several soybean trials at the Milan REC which was a dust bowl in late June but started getting good rains from July onward– and we are pulling 60 and 70 bushel yields in non-irrigated fields.  This is very good news for producers who are following a grim corn harvest.  Statewide the soybean crop is close to 70% harvested and it looks like we will have favorable weather to finish on-time this fall.
