The problem
At the request of the county extension agent, I visited a corn field to assess potential yield. The corn was still standing in January, which is very late for a normal year, but not as uncommon this growing season. There was evidence of cattle movement through the field. We assessed potential yield and provided a few suggestions to keep the loss concerns from going to court. The producer was satisfied with our assessment and has initially decided he would prefer to stay out of the court.
