Harvest underway...

Silos are still being topped off and soybean and corn harvest has started throughout the county.

Soybeans are probably close to being half harvested while corn is just in the very beginning...A lot of producers are starting with those cornfields that were wind-damaged.

Double-cropped beans are looking good, haven't seen much winter wheat going in yet though.

Gearing up and starting harvest...

Harvest in the county is just getting underway. For the most part, silos are topped off and a couple of producers have started running beans. I haven't seen any corn shelled in the county yet, but there has been some harvested in nearby Muskingum County.

Producers who have corn down on their farm might be concerned with mold - check out this week's CORN newsletter for information on this topic.
