Harvest wrapping up

In Richland County, sugarbeets and corn for grain are about all that is left to harvest.  Those who were planning on seeding winter wheat have that crop in the ground and it should be off to a good start.  Beet harvest is going well as the weather has now cooperated and allowed farmers to get in their fields and harvest all day.

Corn for silage is all wrapped up and corn that will be harvested as grain has just begun.  Hay producers are weighing the options of whether or not to take a last cutting, graze, or just let it be.  We have had a few nights of frost, but not a good killing frost as of yet.
