Will the good crops be good enough to offset the drought stricken areas? To view this email as a web page,
click here | | 1. Will the good areas of the eastern Corn Belt offset the dry western areas?
USDA’s corn & soybean crop ratings show there’s a great divide between those areas where rains have been prevalent & the areas that have been dry. Crop Tour will give us a 1st-hand look at whether the good areas are enough to compensate for the poorer locations.
2. Crop Tour is the 1st sample-based look at Midwest crops.
USDA no longer collects objective yield samples in August, so the Pro Farmer Crop Tour will be the first to measure ear populations and pod counts from actual fields at scale.
3. Particular interest this year will be corn ear population & soybean pod counts.
State-by-state results will be shared daily with historical data to see how this year's counts compare.
