An agronomist says the soybean harvest is ahead of schedule around the Wisconsin-Illinois border.
William Wynn with Pioneer says, “We had a lot of our soybean crop planted before May 1st down here in the southern part of the state. Early yield indications showed that has paid off, especially down here towards the state line.”
Wynn tells Brownfield many farmers were concerned about yield loss during August when soybeans were filling pods, but his area did get some timely rains at the end of the month.
