Arkansas Corn Harvest Underway Amid Higher Costs and Lower Yields

Corn harvest is underway in Arkansas, where farmers are facing financial pressure due to higher costs and lower commodity prices.

Seth Tucker, a Drew County farmer, is nearing the end of corn harvest. He noted that the crop is yielding less than in recent years after a dry summer and efforts to reduce input costs.

Tucker stated that corn prices would need to climb above $5 per bushel for him to break even.
