As farmers in the Eastern Corn Belt wrap up harvest, many are preparing for next season. Based in central Illinois, Bennett Consulting owner Matt Bennett thinks availability of inputs will be a bigger issue than cost. “Once the soil temperature gets where it needs to be, farmers need to be ready to roll. The big issue I see moving forward is if we don’t get a good fall run in the Eastern Corn Belt on anhydrous and you don’t get much on, this will test the system like we never have before.” Because of supply concerns, Bennett says many farmers are choosing to put fertilizer down sooner, rather than later.
