#Harvest23 is under way! As suspected the corn yields are coming in 5-7% less than 2022 and on par with elevator tour estimates. 225-230 at 22-26%. Soybeans have been sparse so far with only 2 known fields harvested with and average of 64.

Beautiful fall weather with above average temps coming next week. I feel like we are going to chase this crop to the finish.
