A Northeast Nebraska farmer says harvest is about three weeks away.
Quentin Connealy grows corn and soybeans near Tekamah. “Corn looks like it’s really drying down and getting brown here and it looks like it’s going to be dry here the next couple of weeks here with mid-to-high 80-degree weather so it could get going pretty fast,” he says.
The latest crop progress report from the USDA says 78 percent of corn has dented, five percent behind last year with 64 percent rated good-to-excellent.
