A north central Iowa farmer has wrapped up a remarkable harvest.
April Hemmes of Hampton says her corn and soybeans performed extremely well considering the dry growing season.
“With half of the rain I usually get, I brought in a record crop. Unbelievable.”
She tells Brownfield her area received a total of eight inches of rain the entire growing season.
“But it just came at the right time.”
Hemmes says this was also one of her earliest harvests.
