We see the light …

We can now see the light at the end of the tunnel! Today we moved to our last field of corn and harvest should be finished by Thursday! We are finishing a good two weeks earlier than the last few years. Partly, due to lower yields but mostly due to the lack of rain. It has been a really long stretch with no breaks. I believe we only had one break due to rain. We had several frustrating days while we were combining beans due to the fog but other than that, the combines have been rolling. The yields were highly variable as expected. Overall, I think it will end up being an average year which is amazing considering the large amounts of rain early followed by no rain late summer.
