DTN’s 5th annual Digital Yield Tour wrapped up just days ago on August 12th, 2022, and yield estimates meaningfully lower than USDA’s left some surprised and others feeling validated.
Today, DTN Farm Business Editor Katie Dehlinger joins us to reveal the latest estimates that Gro Intelligence published during the tour, including granular estimates for 10 key midwestern states and national yield numbers for both corn and soybeans. We’ll dig into the meaning behind the numbers, talk through the hyper-local effects that many farmers are dealing with, and discuss what might still be ahead as weather continues to create uncertainty in the weeks ahead.
We’ll discuss drought impacts, delayed planting, and when DTN/progressive farmer readers and listeners might hear the next updated from Gro Intelligence.
