North Central Illinois | If that is an accurate representation of the field it will make at least 160 providing you don't have an event that puts the corn down or causes you to not get it all. I don't know about your area but after being really dry and having a few pollination issues and a lot of kernel aborting we have stabilized with recent rains. The plants have greened back up to a certain extent and the ears that are out there are filling the kernels they have nicely. With almost three inches of rain in the past two weeks and absolutely beautiful daytime temps and cool nighttime temps the kernels have decent depth and look almost normal. I look for test weight to be decent as well. A month ago I would have guessed very shallow kernels and very light test weight. Time will tell here in a few weeks. The variability brought on by the drought has made it almost impossible for me to get any kind of accurate guess on my yield potential. Somewhere between 65 and 140! That's really nailing it down isn't it?! | |
