Almost impossible to get 2 good harvest days in a row. Stalk strength and cob drop are real concerns. High winds last week messed up some corn fields. Late season corn borer damage is more widespread than previously thought. Corn silage harvest is in full swing.
Harvest continues as weather permits.
Yields all over the board but tend to be very good in areas with sufficient summer rainfall. Quality is reasonably good so far. Haying continues - it should be less damaging to cut now at the end of the critical harvest period than it was 2 to 3 weeks ago. Cool weather early in the week resulted in frost Thursday morning. Low lying areas were most affected with frost touching mostly the top few leaves on corn.
