The Pioneer Agronomy Update originated from the Oberon, North Dakota area on Tuesday. This is an area that had spotty frost early in the week. “It is really variable where it hit hard and where it didn’t, but it was not a consistent kill in the area,” explained Donny Allmaras, who operates Allmaras Ag at Bremen. Early soybeans are coming off of the lighter ground in the area where yields were impacted by the dry conditions in July and August. “Now we’re starting to hear yields coming into the 30s and there will be 40 and 50 bushel (per acre) soybeans in the country.” Pioneer Field Agronomist Kristie Sundeen says there’s still wheat and canola standing in the northern part of her territory “so there’s still a lot of harvest left to do.” While the current crop is going being combined, seed sales has already started for the 2023 crop.
