Pennsylvania Grain Harvest Making Slow Progress
Pennsylvania Ag Connection - 10/16/2018
Pennsylvania had a fair week for field activities with an average of 3.5 days suitable for field work. Temperatures were reported with a high of 89F, a low of 27F and a state average temperature of 63F. Cool weather and occasional rain allowed for fieldwork
but did little to help fields dry.
Little to no progress was made with hay due to lack of sunshine.
Grain corn has been slow to dry and yields have been lackluster.
Soybeans continue to suffer from disease and mold with very little progress made in terms of harvesting.
Apple harvests continue as do concerns regarding shelf-life due to the high moisture content caused by wet weather.
Field activities were limited by rain but consisted of cutting corn for grain and silage and planting fall crops.
