FYI: (I posted this on the wrong blog entry!)
To accommodate farmers who had to deal with late planting challenges, the National Corn Growers Association has extended the deadline for early entries to the National Corn Yield Contest. To be eligible for the $75 entry fee rate, mailed entries must be postmarked or submitted online no later than July 10.
The previous early-entry deadline was July 1. This change does not extend the final deadline of Aug. 1. NCGA will review the national planting progress reports July 20 to determine if there is a need to extend the Aug. 1 final deadline.
