Red River Sales and Agronomy Pioneer sales agronomist Leah Johnson says corn coming off the field near Elbow Lake, Minnesota is just under 20 percent moisture. While corn grain quality looks great, there could be a challenge drying it down. “Because of the stress on those kernels they’re just a little harder texture. We’ll see as harvest progresses the next couple weeks but it seems like it might take a little more fuel to dry corn.” Yields have been very spotty according to Johnson. Some townships in Johnson’s area have only received three to four inches of rain this growing season.
