    Giving Thanks

    In just a few days, most of us will gather around a table with loved ones. We will laugh at the children in our family who try to sneak a slice of pumpkin pie before the meal. We will take a moment to slow down, in a world that during this time of year in agriculture, often moves on fast forward. And, we will take a moment to say thank you, because although this year may have been a challenging one (we certainly know harvest has been), we still have many things to be thankful for.

    At Latham, we’re thankful for many things, but most of all, we’re thankful for you. The American farmer. We’re thankful that you get up in the morning to help feed and fuel our world. We’re thankful that you haven’t shied away from the many challenges that have come your way, and instead, have stood up and found solutions. We’re thankful that every day, we get to work on behalf of you and your farm, because there is no one else we’d rather work for.

    Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours, from all of us at Latham Hi‑Tech Seeds.

The site provides information on what to watch for in moldy corn; tips for staying safe around moldy crops; advice for storing, drying and handling wet soybeans; as well as post-harvest crop handling.

    Contact Crop Insurance Agent Regarding Late Harvest

    Agri-View recently posted an article that’s very important for farmers to read as this challenging harvest continues. With the weather causing a late, slow-progressing harvest, the article highlights the importance of contacting your crop insurance agent if you won’t be able to complete harvest by early December.

    Purdue University economist Bill Edwards is quoted in the article, saying the crop insurance deadline for corn and soybeans in Midwest states is Dec. 10. “However, producers may request additional time to complete harvest. Insurance companies may grant an extension when timely notice is given to the agent and the delay is due to an insured cause, such as wet weather or snowfall.” For more information, please read the article.

    Quality issues may arise from challenging harvest – tips to help ensure quality grain

    In true Iowa fashion, the weather has gone from sunny, to rain, to snow, and back to sunny, giving little chance for decisions before the weather changes again. Even with the drastic temperature changes, the USDA October Iowa yield estimate was the highest on record. However, with high grain yields come quality issues.

    Charles Hurburgh wrote a great article with helpful information regarding current harvest conditions and the quality issues that may arise due to the frequently changing weather conditions. Also included are tips for storage management that will positively affect grain quality, and information about shrink calculations.
