Harvest Progress, Stewardship, and What’s Ahead for 2026
Planting a cereal rye cover crop into soybean stubble.
The 2025 season reminded us that every year brings a different set of challenges and lessons. From early rains to scattered August storms, it was a year of contrasts. Soybeans are in the bin, corn is still drying, and we’re already thinking ahead to 2026—with an eye on stewardship, soil health, and long-term success.
Whether you're a land partner, neighbor, or just interested in what we’ve been up to, this fall’s newsletter has updates on:
Soybean harvest progress and corn drying delays due to healthy plant finish
Spring rain delays and how August rainfall varied across the county
Chicken litter lined up to fertilize 2026 corn acres
