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: Syngenta Ag Stories - Reanna Hagel, Channel Marketing Manager

Growing up on a cow-calf operation and small feedlot near Lumby, BC, Reanna learned agriculture the hands-on way with her sister on the family farm. Today, as Channel Marketing Manager for Syngenta Canada, what Reanna loves most about her work is simple: the customer is always at the centre. Whether that's a grower or a channel partner, she understands them on a personal level - because she's the daughter of one. But for Reanna, supporting ag doesn't stop at her job. She volunteers with local 4-H clubs, lends a hand to her farming neighbours, and is raising her own kids to understand and respect the land. Her advice to the next generation? "It's an amazing time to be in the industry - it's going to look completely different in 20 years. To be part of the evolution is very exciting."
