east central Iowa (Jackson county).Corn silage harvest has begun. 2 weeks ago we thought we wouldn’t be chopping until the 15th-20th of Sept. because of the cool July weather and planting delays. Since then the excessive heat along with minimal rainfall has rapidly sped up maturity. As we all know,that’s not good. A month ago everyone was talking about booking LP and trying to figure out how to get the crop dry,now everyone is wondering how much of the crop has been lost the past few weeks. A lot of guys are running out of pasture and now feeding hay just like last year.As far as the bean crop goes, I haven’t walked into many, I figured there was not sense of looking at something that has the potential of shrinking with every passing day with no rain in sight.
