Early harvest activity in area

Harvest has been underway in the Boone County area since early last week. Mostly dryland soybeans have been harvested.
Above, a combine was working east of Albion last weekend.
Yields have varied widely, with poorer yields in the south and better yields to the north, depending on the rainfall received.
The yield range has been from 10 to 40 bushels per acre for dryland soybeans. Some dryland corn has also been harvested.
