# A mostly average 2026 harvest for Kankakee County farmers

> Kankakee County, Illinois, farmers reported a mostly average 2026 harvest, but some fields suffered severe corn yield losses. One farmer harvested just over 60 bushels per acre, which he attributed to rain-delayed spring planting and intense late-summer heat during pollination; typical county yields exceed 200 bushels per acre.
