A western Missouri farmer says the following weeks will have

a large impact on his corn and soybean yields.

Todd Gibson farms outside of Norborne near the Missouri

river, he says while his corn looks good now, it’ll need more moisture to stay

in good condition.

“I’ve got some that’s just now starting to tassel, if it

get’s some rain that’ll help,” he said. “I’ve also got some corn that’s just

now waste high and it could use some more moisture here and there and it could

still turn either way right now is a critical time.”

Gibson said it’s too early to tell what his soybean crop will

shape into…

“The bean crop is still anybody’s guess, you know, it looks

good right now and it’s anywhere from just now coming out of the ground to four

or five inches tall,” he said.
