Harvest is off and running for a northwest Missouri farmer.
“We’re about 8% started on corn, so we are just really kind of getting poked into it,” said Jordan Bottiger of St. Joseph.
Bottiger says his corn crop looks good despite a dry stretch in August. “From what we have seen and what I’ve been talking with some friends, I’d say we’re going to be at least at average to probably 10%-15% above average.”
He tells Brownfield he hopes to start harvesting soybeans by October 1st.
