Watch Soybeans Harvested Late For High Moisture
E. S. Dyas of Iowa State College warns that late harvests may yield soybeans with dangerously high moisture, especially in southeast Iowa. Damp weather and early snow caused immature beans to be stored before thorough drying, requiring thin spreading and fanning if cirt and chaff are present. Farmers with damp beans should monitor moisture and may use forced warm air cautiously to finish drying to avoid reduced test weight and lower grade.
