This page contains data and maps that our team of agronomists, geographers, meteorologists and remote sensing analysts have constructed as relevant insight into our current analysis. We will updated this page throughout the growing year with relevant and near-real time data.
To quantify potential impact of August weather on yield potential, Lanworth conducted a sensitivity analysis of its corn and soybean yield models in four major Corn Belt states under different future weather scenarios that combined deviation from normal temperature and precipitation. The scenarios combine three levels of temperature change from August normals (no change, +1°F, and +2°F) and three levels of precipitation change (-1 inch, no change, and +1 inch). Here, Lanworth shows the results of one such scenario.
Despite high rainfall, timely planting followed by warm and… full article

The 2010 crop year began with planting in early April with the arrival of warm, dry weather and clear skies. At the first signs of crop emergence,… full article
The 2009 crop year was difficult at planting time for corn, soybeans and spring/winter wheat due to unusually high amounts of rainfall and associated flooding. Prevented planting… full article
