Latest WI Crop Report: 66% Corn, 86% Soybeans Harvested

Farmers got a short window of favorable conditions at the beginning of the past week to complete their fall harvest. The Wisconsin Ag Statistics Service issued another extended crop/weather summary on Monday, which noted that high grain moistures continued to impede grain storage as driers were going full blast as crops came in. Back-to-back winter storms then slowed or halted fieldwork for the rest of the week.

Crop scouts estimate that 66 percent of the corn for grain was harvested as of Sunday.

Video: Running a Farm Store + Starting No-Till Gardens w/Blue Goose Farm

We cover: today we are chatting with Keenan McVey of Blue Goose Farm in Ontario Canada. Keenan, along with his wife Ashley, run this small farm and along with it a really interesting, in-town Farm Store that is a little different from what you might think of as a farm store and has proved to be an invaluable marketing option for them. Keenan’s roots are in the culinary world, and the farm was also started with another chef from the area some of you may know, named Matty Matheson (of the excellent show The Bear). Keenan tells us that story as well as helps detail the technical stuff about how the gardens were created and how they are maintained.
