Another Pro Farmer Crop Tour is in the books. Scouts are returning home after several days of boots-on-the-ground action, but one state stands out from the rest.
Minnesota’s corn crop topped the charts with the highest sample yield, coming in at 202.86 bushels per acre, which surpasses the USDA’s estimate earlier this month, and is 23 percent higher than last year.
Disease pressure is also growing. Scouts found that southern rust was more prevalent in the southeastern portion of the state. On the soybean side, they found a 3x3 square that contained around 1,246 pods.
