Indiana, Ohio on Track for Record Yields, With Illinois Close Behind, Tour Finds
The Eastern Corn Belt is approaching a record-setting year for corn and soybean yields, according to Day Four of the 2021 DTN Digital Yield Tour, which explored Illinois, Indiana and Ohio.
Powered by Gro Intelligence, the tour is an in-depth look at how this year's corn and soybean crops are progressing using Gro's real-time yield maps, which are generated with satellite imagery, rainfall data, temperature maps and other public data. Unlike static estimates, Gro's yield projections update daily on a county and state level, so the numbers at publication time may be slightly different than what you find on the Gro website.
Gro's yield models expect Illinois to hit a statewide average corn yield of 203.5 bushels per acre (bpa), up 11.5 bpa from last year, with a projected average soybean yield of 60.9 bpa, chasing the state record of 63.5 bpa set in 2018.
