Todd Easton Coles County October 9 2009: This harvest is starting out exactly how we did not want it to. Rain showers have been making the bean cutting stop and go for producers and raising worries on how this fall will unfold. Yield reports for beans are coming in at around 50 bushels in the southern part of the county to 60 or above toward the northern part. No fresh news on corn yields as almost everyone is still waiting on the crop to dry out enough to harvest and have been concentrating on bean harvest so far. The Thursday rain storms have almost given us 2” so far which will probably stop any progress until next week.
