Harvest, Dry and Store Frost Damaged Crops
(Posted on 11/5/2009)
Much of this year's late maturing corn and soybean crop in the Eastern Corn Belt could be severely damaged by an early frost. Options for harvesting, drying, and storing frost-damaged corn and soybeans depend on the plant's developmental stage when frost occurred. Frost damage will affect crops in at least five ways: reduced yields, dockage due to lower test weights or undesirable color, reduced harvest efficiency, wetter than desirable grain, and higher drying costs.
