2013 Kentucky Corn Yield Contest Deadline Delayed

Chad Lee, Extension Agronomist, University of Kentucky

The 2013 Kentucky Corn Yield Contest deadline has been delayed until November 29, 2013. We have several farmers who still need to harvest corn and want to enter the contest. Corn harvest across the state has been delayed this year and that prompted the extension of the deadline.

This Kentucky deadline does not change the NCGA Corn Contest, which has a deadline of November 22, 2013.

Corn and Soybean Yield Contest Forms Available

Forms for both the Kentucky Soybean and Kentucky Corn yield contests are available online at the Grain Crops Extension website. The Soybean contest includes divisions for both tillage and no-tillage as well as seed quality awards.

The Corn contest has updated guidelines for its divisions. The four divisions are the same: Tillage, No-Tillage, White and Irrigated. However, the No-Tillage division is updated to coincide with the NCGA Corn Contest and follows a stricter definition of no-till.

Entry into either contest is free and is completed by harvesting the crop according to the rules and submitting the proper forms in the proper time.
