[AT] Corn report

[jtchall at nc.rr.com]

Sounds about right, we'll probably start in 3-4 weeks. Most stuff you guys 
are 2-4 weeks ahead of us. So far August has been a lot cooler than normal, 
I think that is holding back the corn from turning. I'm planning on getting 
the combine in the shop for a once over by the end of next week. I haven't 
seen any beans starting to yellow yet but there are some gorgeous early 
beans around. About 3 ft. tall and a very dark green, shouldn't take but a 
little more rain to finish that crop. Double crop beans are all over the 
place, I've seen them 2ft high as well as bare fields behind quite a few 
farmers. We got hit with no rain for over a month during June/July. That is 
definitely going to hurt the corn yields.

I saw two different farmers picking corn yesterday
here in coastal NC.
