2024 started off very slow for us and our immediate area. Some corn and beans were planted in April, but a lot was planted in May. Wet and cool conditions were to blame for the slow start. As the growing season pushed on into July, we were looking very good. As August came the rains stopped and we didn't get much rain until the end of October. The lack of rain didn't seem to hurt corn yields too bad or the April-planted beans. Our May beans were 10-15 bushels off compared to our April-planted. We shelled a lot of 13-15% moisture corn. Planning is well on its way for the 2025 season. Input prices look like they will be steady to slightly lower on average.
