Corn along the Platte River in northeast Nebraska will likely be ready for harvest in late September to early October after just a half of an inch of rain since June.
The farmer expected dryland corn yields around a third of normal, due to drought, while irrigated corn might yield nearly 50 bushels less than usual.
