Portland, North Dakota farmer Ross Thykeson is working on the corn harvest. “Things are going pretty smooth, pretty dry. It’s anywhere from 15 to 18 (percent) moisture and there are good bushels out there. Storage is starting to get tight.” In August and early September, there were worries about the corn making it to maturity. Thanks to late-season GDUs, that hasn’t been a concern. “You can’t ask for a better fall, it’s just been so much more relaxing not fighting with Mother Nature.”
