The numbers are in and Morgan County producers are reporting good numbers for this Fall's beet harvest, while corn harvest numbers remain lower. According to the Fort Morgan Times, 95-percent of the corn harvest is done. The poorest harvest was from dryland corn which will likely keep corn prices high this year. The Western Sugar Cooperative reports beet yields of around 32 tons per acre, although less than half of the harvest has been done. Producers report the sugar content is over 16-percent...which is also considered good.
