A south-central Illinois farmer says his corn yields this harvest should compete with last year’s record crop.
Rolland Vandeveer of Salem tells Brownfield his area has had a great growing season with timely rains.
“Last year we had the best crop we’ve ever raised on corn and soybeans. This year the corn looks extremely good again. I think it is going to be well above average.”
He says he uses the Granular Insights yield calculator as a faster and more accurate alternative to manually counting kernels.
