An up and down weather year could lead to an average crop yield years for farmers this harvest season. Farmers are nearing the halfway mark in pulling in their crops—particularly in their corn and soybean fields.
Purdue Knox County Extension educator Valerie Clingerman says so-so weather is bringing in a so-so yield in this area. Clingerman says with a tough start to the season, and a hot, dry mid to late summer, farmers had to make some hard choices.
With harvest activities continuing, drivers—especially on country roads—are reminded to watch for various farm vehicles involved in harvest activities.
