Farmers at FPS are uncertain about yields this year because of variable weather conditions

From Corn Belt to the Delta, farmers have varying expectations for yields. 

Eastern Nebraska farmer Quentin Connealy says harvest could start within two weeks, but his expectations are low because of prolonged drought.

“I’m usually optimistic, but it was hot and dry, and I think we lost some bushels, I just don’t know how much yet.”

Shane Brelsford in Southeast Iowa says despite a stretch of hot, dry weather in August, there’s still potential for a good soybean crop.
