Soil Consulting and Crop Consulting in Illinois. You may call it soil testing, soil sampling, or soil health management, but it is more than that. These are my daily or weekly travels in soil and crop consulting and my observations in the agricultural world.

Been all over
I have done a bit of sampling, delivered reports, delivered a VRT prescription, and taken my Archer field PDA to be repaired. I also went to Champaign for training today. I have been to Wet Alton, Carlinville, and Staunton. In general harvest is progressing well. Lots of corn is done and soybeans are getting done quickly. Today, I spotted some corn stored in temporary storage. At least in that area, corn yields are OK. I saw some corn with small ears, and some soybeans that were just not tall enough to yield well. There were places where i would drive 2 to 5 miles ans everything was harvested. Then there would be a block that was less than 50% harvested. Not sure what caused that. Ground is definitely dry enough for ripping if you have compaction issues.
