At the Elbow Lake, Minnesota, the corn crop has been helped by hot, humid conditions. At Red River Marketing, Leah Johnson is very optimistic about the corn. “Based on our 30 year average accumulated GDUs, we’re 150-plus heat units ahead.” The harvest season could be very different from last year. “With the maturities that we raise around here, in that 90-to-a little over 100 day, we’re going to have a lot of corn that is at physiological maturity by Big Iron and it is going to be exciting to think about harvesting corn before the ground freezes.”
