A Western Cornbelt agronomist says he’s seeing some yield loss from soybeans drying quicker than expected in the field.

“It’s just amazing how fast things can dry down once that soybean is mature,” said Dekalb Asgrow’s Kevin Keller.

Keller tells Brownfield some farmers are having a tough time harvesting soybeans fast enough.

“I think it always surprises guys how quickly soybeans can dry down and we see that most every year where we’re looking for that one soybean field or a couple soybean fields to finish on with a little more moisture,” Keller said.
