That bite of cold in the North Dakota mornings isn't the only thing signaling fall is in the air. The combines sit at the ready to take their first bite out of the crop on Chandra and Mike Langseth's farm near Barney.
"The corn crop is really starting to show signs that it is dying back," said Mike. "Everything is dented. The milk line is moving down. Soybeans are starting to drop leaves. We seem right on target for a normal start date of around the end of September here."
Some 600 miles to the south, Zachary Grossman is also waiting to get his first taste of what yields might look like on his Tina, Missouri, farm. "We keep pulling moisture checks and the corn is running about 23%. When that number drops below 20%, we'll roll," said Grossman on Sept. 7.
Grossman and the Langseths have been reporting through the 2023 growing season as part of DTN's View From the Cab project. The feature started as the farmers were planting their first seeds. This is the 19th installment in what has been a rollercoaster year due to lack of consistent rainfall, which leaves farmers wondering what fall might have in store.
DTN Ag Meteorologist John Baranick noted both regions have come off hot temperatures early in the month and slipped into a more near or slightly below normal pattern with temperatures through September 15-18. "We turn up the potential for above-normal temperatures again to close out the month of September," said Baranick.
