A northwest Missouri farmer who started harvest this week is pleased with early results. Richard Oswald of Atchison County tells Brownfield he’s expecting over 200 bushels an acre for corn and has reached nearly 400 bushels in some areas.
“It was just kind of crazy because, you’d be picking along and it’d be in that 200 [bushel] range and then all of a sudden it would just start raising and he (Oswald’s son) could hear the machine start to labor,” Oswald said.
