Yep, it's all still standing everywhere around me. I wonder how much longer before they start combining it?!?
At least the corn, run them buggers out from laying up in them fields!!!
Anyone seen fields starting to get cut?

Our local farmers started shelling corn Thursday. I have not seen any beans being picked yet, but they will be as soon as the farmers get their corn dried & bins filled.

Up in Indiana September is too early to be picking corn. Most of it will not start to be picked until about the third week in October. Beans get picked usually before corn does.

Normally you would be entirely correct, but this year most of the corn will be harvested well before then in the southern half of the state. |

I have seen one field of corn that is down already. It was on the south side of Indy.

I've got "some" corn around me that NEEDS to be cut, but no one has started yet.
Too many deer lay up in corn fields and makes it awful hard to hunt them... they have too many ways to enter and leave it also.
GET THE CORN CUT PEOPLE!!! Get them dang deer up outta there! LMAO

Hi Friends..
I live in Galveston, Indiana and I have noticed a few fields being worked on. There are a number of bean fields already worked and I have seen a few cornfields being worked also.
There is a couple cornfields around my hunting area that the corn looks TERRIBLE. It looks as if they have been worm infested.. There is still lots of deer tracks around the edges and I noticed a really good acron crop in the woods.
GOOD HUNTING..
Bud Fields

I'd guess that over half of our corn is out or will be out by the end of next week. The rain Sunday didn't help.

Guys in Tipton and northern Hamilton County are starting to get into the corn and early beans as of this past week... heard a lot of the corn is running wet at 21-24 %, and guys won't want to pay 20 cents/bushel drying charges due to high cost of natural gas... they'll wait for cooler dryer weather... the later beans still have a lot of green stems, which really makes the combine suck fuel... if the weather cools down the next couple of weeks, I think stuff will be mostly off by end of October.
If the gas prices weren't so high, they'd be hitting the corn hard and drying it... not this year!
