Subject: Hand Tested first corn EC-IL


Tested Syngenta/Golden Harvest 108 day, planted late april-early may (would have to check the planting book to check variety/date) 31% on the hand sample. Realistically hoping in 3 weeks we can start corn, hoping to get soybeans out of the way first in two weeks so we can put the platform away and be done with it.

Think 4% drydown per week is stretching it with the low humidity and cool winds? Would really love to start before halloween this year. Cargill said no corn above 30% this year, of course you arent making any money hauling it in that wet either. Guess we'll watch it drydown for three more weeks and can hopefully get it to 19-22% on the combine sample and not get docked 65c/bu for drydown lol.

Im running out of projects fast to keep busy, i think ive swept the shop floor about 10 times today haha.
