Twitter Survey 2012 Corn Yield Expectations
Jul 19, 2012
Here are the results of the Twitter survey conducted over the past several days.
We asked “FARMER ONLY” participants for the following information: the state where you farm, 5 year avg. yield or APH, 2011 actual yield, and your estimated 2012 yield.
We recognize this isn't a scientific study; however, we felt a survey from farmers specifically would give us a good cross-section of the realistic situation.
Here are the results from the farmers who responded to the survey. Below the results, you'll find the individual list by producer and state.
