This picture of mature corn comes from Wisconsin. Corn harvest has been progressing across the entire Corn Belt this past week. The USDA reported that 37% of the crop had been already harvested as of Monday. Moisture levels of harvested corn have been ideal for farmers. Typically, grain elevators will dock farmers if corn is above 15% moisture, but this year farmers have been reporting moisture levels close and even below 15% which means their corn will not require additional drying costs.
