Interested producers can have their fields assessed by registering through the Great Lakes Grain website using the link below:https://www.greatlakesgrain.com/2022-Crop-assessment-request-form

The benefit of the crop tour is to have a better understanding of overall corn and soybean crop health and yield for farmer participants, exporters and end-users.
