Agronomist says dry weather has caused a hit to soybean yields

An agronomist says dry weather has taken the top end of soybean yields in part of the state.

Matt Schwab with Helena tells Brownfield rain showers have been really spotty.  “Some areas may be sitting pretty well,” he says.  “But in Northern Bay County and the surrounding areas, we’re pretty dry and have definitely lost our optimum yield potential.”

He says disease pressure has been much of an issue in his area this year.
