Harvest is mostly complete with a few corn fields that still need to be shelled, according to Mark Badertscher of the Hardin extension office.
According to the Nov. 30 Ohio crop weather report, corn is 92% harvested in Ohio and 69% of the wheat is either rated good or excellent.
Soybean harvest is wrapped up in Hardin County. During the growing season, from April 15 through Oct. 15, average rainfall was 20.35 inches, which made 2020 a dry year. This is 4.57 inches below the 10-year average growing season precipitation, and 5.76 less inches of rain than last year’s growing season.
