Yield Monitor Setup and Calibration are Important

You've heard the term garbage in - garbage out. 

This is especially true when working with yield monitors. There is one chance to get this information correct each year. Having properly working equipment, consistent farm and field setup, and crop flow and moisture calibration are very important. The rewards you’ll reap from retrieving this valuable information will be well worth the time and effort.

We began the month of May by distributing this year’s patronage and equity redemption checks at our open house events in Mt Horeb, LaFarge, and Westby. While the nice weather may have kept many of our producer members busy in the fields, we still managed to have a great turnout at each of the events. If you were not able to stop in to pick up your check this year, all remaining checks were mailed out by the end of May. If you were expecting a check and have not received it, please give our office a call.
