Brisk harvest pace in northwest Minnesota

Harvest is advancing quickly in northwest Minnesota.

Blair Hoseth of Mahnomen tells Brownfield he’s about 90 percent done with soybeans.

“We started (around) Labor Day and we had beans down as low as 9 percent (moisture) on Labor Day, so that was kind of an extreme record for the early side.”

Hoseth delivered soybeans to the local elevator this Friday morning.

“And I talked to the elevator person there, and he was saying they think about half of the soybeans in the area have been harvested so far.”

He says yields vary.

We’ll NEVER Use These Grain Bins Again!

Video: We’ll NEVER Use These Grain Bins Again!


A huge change is happening on the farm — our new grain bin has officially arrived, and that means we’ll never use some of our old grain bins again. In today's video, we take delivery of the new grain bin, look back at the old bins that have been part of our farm for years, and talk about why this upgrade is such a big deal for harvest, grain storage, and the future of our family farm.

This is more than just a grain bin delivery. It’s the end of an era and the start of a major farm upgrade that will completely change how we handle corn during harvest. From old grain storage to a brand-new bin setup, this project is one of the biggest improvements we’ve made at the farm.

Join me as the new grain bin shows up, the bin project continues, and we prepare for a new chapter in harvest efficiency on our Minnesota family farm.
