A southern Indiana farmer is hoping to use the knowledge gained in participation of the national corn yield contest to improve profitability on his family’s farm.

Ben Kron entered Kron Farms into the National Corn Growers Association Corn Yield Contest, and in 2020 he was the winner in the strip, minimum, mulch, ridge-till irrigated class.  

“There’s a lot of different applications that we made, and through that we were able to figure out what paid off and what we were doing just because it was a high-yield contest,” he says.
