Attached you will find a link to an Illinois crop report that shows harvest completion as of Sunday November 3, 2019. Still way behind normal.There is nothing regarding any price changes, trade issues or yield issues, just a crop harvest update for ILL, which would mimic most of the upper Midwest. The 300% of normal for October runs from Lake Michigan ( am in a violet county) and runs about 400 miles west and south through much of WI and most of Iowa. There are other areas north and south of this major area. We have many, many acres of beans that will need some low teens to get solid enough to combine. Right now every manure tanker in this region is going day and night on as many acres as they can find. With so much crop, corn and beans left to go there will be manure storage and application issues for sure this fall and winter. About 6 years ago we had a spell of heavy rain here and some farms trucked liquid manure 75 miles to find fields that could take the manure. That is a real fast way to add cost to spreading manure.
