3% of Corn Harvest Remains in Iowa

One area of the state continues to lag behind in finishing off the corn harvest.  

The latest USDA crop survey found twelve percent of the corn in south-central Iowa remained to be harvested as of the end of the week Sunday. 

No other crop district had more than four percent remaining, with the statewide average of just three percent of the corn still in the fields. 

The corn harvest is on the same pace as last year – and ten days ahead of the five-year average.
