    No doubt nitrogen deficiency has been our biggest issue with the corn on

  2. The majors are comparing soybean pod counts with a three-year average from '09-'11 (excluding '12), and we're coming in lower.

  3. Immature corn in Freeborn, MN. 1115 corn yield with good potential. Warly frost would probably make it yeild 0. Pod-528

  4. As we work our way to the center of the state moisture starts lacking. Nitrogen deficiency. Yields showing it. 140s-160s BPA

  9. Be nice if you could tell us corn stage when posting yield estimates, makes a big deal on the potential at this point in MN

  10. My driver '. "I'm sorry; I'm figuring out this wiper situation here." This all new to us.

  11. @hedgit_jhof: Average of 3 field to the Northeast of Cedar Rapids, IA for corn this morning is 192 bpa.

  12. RT Logan Co IL 197.31 - 2 inches of tip back on the ear 1200 Sang. Co corn 199.29 beans 749

  13. Yield estimates strong so far but crop needs til October to finish. After 5 stops, corn avg 197.3 bpa and beans 1002 pods

  14. Faribault Co, MN Cron Yield 224. Good looking crop overall in milk stage. Pod count 934

  15. We weren't even in prevent plant country yet. This is the southern edge and things look rough

  16. 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.

    1. Independence, IA Crops look decent from road. But here's our aerial view. Holes & a lot of yellow

    2. Yep, windshield tour won't do. Gotta get out in the field like you guys are doing.

  17. Cloudburst in Delaware Co. On the lookout. for witches ridinf bicycles and flying houses

  18. Not good. These Jackson Co. beans are more advanced, but 2 pods per node don't make a big yield.

  19. Four fields scouted so far in Jackson and Martin counties in S Minn. Healthy est at 179.1 bpa, but most of it late milk.

  20. : Day 3 photos and audio reports from our field agronomists as they tour Nebraska, Illinois, Iowa.

  21. And I wonder, still I wonder who'll stop the rain? A 203 bu yield the hi thus far for our rte I

  22. we've had a low bean average so far. Corn is immature so it will be very difficult to estimate.

  23. hearing word of very immature corn from other routes. A 9 in ear still in blister stage is hard to estimate

  24. That's something to think about, but most of the uneven ear placement we've seem is the result of planting problems.
