Faribault Co, MN Cron Yield 224. Good looking crop overall in milk stage. Pod count 934#pftour13
Riding shotgun with@chrisbarron24 6 stops so far. Corn looks decent but beans are bad.#needrain#pftour13
Heavy rains in Buchanan dist. IO good for crops not for buddies#pftour13
We weren't even in prevent plant country yet. This is the southern edge and things look rough#pftour13 pic.twitter.com/CfhRmUTtNU
@TomTom1964 Not what I said. I said 2 pods per node, not 2 beans per pod. I'm well aware you can make good yield with 2 bean pods.#pftour13
Independence, IA Crops look decent from road. But here's our aerial view. Holes & a lot of yellow#pftour13 pic.twitter.com/WabhYwi3yj
@Tyne_AgDay#protip the yellow lines are roads ;)
@Tyne_AgDay Yep, windshield tour won't do. Gotta get out in the field like you guys are doing.
Cloudburst in Delaware Co. On the lookout. for witches ridinf bicycles and flying houses#pftour13
Not good.@ChipFlory These Jackson Co. beans are more advanced, but 2 pods per node don't make a big yield.#pftour13 pic.twitter.com/n5g3c1PCc0
#PFTour13: Day 3 photos and audio reports from our field agronomists as they tour Nebraska, Illinois, Iowa. http://phbn.ws/6015wyXJ
And I wonder, still I wonder who'll stop the rain? A 203 bu yield the hi thus far for our rte#pftour13 I
@HensleySpot we've had a low bean average so far. Corn is immature so it will be very difficult to estimate.#pftour13
hearing word of very immature corn from other routes. A 9 in ear still in blister stage is hard to estimate#pftour13
@moligan1648 That's something to think about, but most of the uneven ear placement we've seem is the result of planting problems.#pftour13
#sneakydrought13……very telling RT@JuliJohnston: Drought spreads...#pftour13#pfnews pic.twitter.com/df3b3m43r8
