A lack of soil moisture could influence planting decisions this spring.
Central Iowa corn and soybean grower Corey Hillebo tells Brownfield 2023 was dry.
“It has weighed on me a little bit. I’ve been selecting some seed lately for myself and for some customers (as) I actually sell a little seed as well, and I’m leaning on the hybrids that have better drought scores. Most generally (those) are our good products anyway, even when it’s not a drought.”
He suggests other farmers are thinking the same.
