# Area farmers close to wrapping up the harvest

> Farmers in and around Chickasaw County, Iowa are nearing the end of the 2026 harvest after rains in late October and early November slowed work. ISU Extension agronomist Terry Basol estimates soybeans are essentially all harvested and corn is about 85 to 90 percent done, with yields reported as strong, especially for beans.

## Why it matters

Strong local soybean and corn yields point to adequate supply from this Iowa region, a modestly bearish influence on feed grain and soybean meal prices at the margin. The story describes routine harvest progress rather than a national supply shift.
