Preharvest has started and the early reports are 20 ton with 16-17 percent sugar. Considering the late spring planting, this is a nice surprise.
There are stories up and down the Valley of fields yielding less and some are being destroyed. The take home message is to make sure you visit with your Seedex dealer to pick the best variety for your specific field in the coming year. Our research crew has started harvesting the trials and we have a lot of data on disease tolerance.
If you have harvest stories you would like to share, give myself or your Seedex dealer a call. We welcome your input.
Have a safe harvest.
