In some areas of the AGRIS trading area, early planted soybeans and short day varieties are starting to mature. Timing of maturity is similar to last year due to the delay in planting in May from the heavy rainfall. The 2018 season has accumulated adequate amount of CHUs and GDDs to ensure that all crops mature in a timely manner within the next couple of weeks.

During the Great Lakes Grain 2018 crop assessment tour, we were busy assessing crop yields of corn and soybeans. This also gives us an opportunity to see lots of other things, before crop harvest. Pest damage, plant health, weed control, planter performance, as well as nutrient deficiencies can be observed.
I am pleased to announce Doug Beintema has accepted the position of Petroleum Joint Venture (JV) manager, which is a joint venture with GROWMARK Inc., effective January 1, 2019. Doug has been with AGRIS for more than 12 years in various roles, including sales and most recently as branch manager at our Chatham and Oungah locations for the past seven years.
9th Annual Crop Assessment Tour September 4th to 7th 2018 is shaping up to be one of the most variable years we have seen in a long time. Inconsistent weather patterns have caused planting delays, crop emergence issues, compaction problems and a host of other pests. Other areas have the best crop they have ever seen. Understanding the crop size , helping growers plan for harvest and what they may do different in 2019 are the opportunities for our tour!
