Soy crop coming along well in central Iowa

Central Iowa farmer Justin Robbins says timely August rains helped improve his soybean crop.

“Our earlier planted beans don’t look too bad,” he said. “My later planted beans are some of the heaviest podded beans I’ve had in a while.”

He tells Brownfield most of his corn looks good, but high winds did cause some damage. “I’ve got some pretty good green snap on a short 800 acres of corn.”

Robbins says he’s optimistic for harvest.
