Corn Harvest 2020 



These two pictures were taken by My Sister In Law as She observed her two Sons on 11 October 2020 when they were busy harvesting Corn in Northeast Iowa.  This area of Iowa was not impacted during the recent tragic wind storm that ruined over 850,000 acres of corn.  This storm called a Derecho happened on 10 August 2020 and was centered in the Cedar Rapids, Iowa!  The Iowa Department of Agriculture estimates that the corn left standing will yield about 186 bushels per acre.  Still a lot of undamaged Corn in Iowa but a real tragic situation for the Farmers who lost their Corn Crop.
