This week has been filled with Farm Progress Show activities! Our farm hosted some folks from Spain and France of the Quality Corn Group. They contract corn for popcorn, roasted corn, corn for nachos and semolina. We also took in the show and worked in a food tent too. The weather was outstanding! Crops continue to march towards harvest. I expect work to begin within two weeks. Farmers I’ve talked to from different areas of the Corn Belt can’t see how the predicted national corn yield can match the forecasted number from the USDA due to August dryness and disease pressure. Only time will tell.
