Harvest- As mentioned in the title, sugarbeet harvest is still going strong. Beet farmers have been in the fields all week and I believe we are well over the half-way point. Some corn for grain harvest has taken place and most of what few acres of soybeans we have has been taken off as well. Essentially, all that is left are a few fields of safflower and the items listed above.
Weather- Conditions have been just about perfect agronomically speaking. Temps have been in the high 50's to low 60's during the day and low to middle 30's in the evenings. Beet harvesters have not had to postpone their work because of warm temperatures since the first week that harvest started and they also have not had to deal with trying to dig beets in extremely wet/sloppy fields.
