For many farmers within the western corn belt severe drought conditions through the summer have left them with reduced yields.  Jeff Sykora and his father Roger Sykora farm in Bon Homme County, South Dakota.  The Sykoras were in the process of harvesting soybeans last week.  Jeff tells of the reduced production.  Jeff Sykora says despite having reduced yields due to the drought conditions, the size of the harvested soybeans have been close to normal.  Roger Sykora says this year reminds him of 2012 when drought conditions persisted, and crop yields were greatly reduced.  Roger says he is hopeful crop insurance will be able to help.  The Sykoras feed cattle and they were asked if they believe they will have enough corn to feed their herd, or if they may need to purchase corn later in the winter.  Both Jeff and Roger Sykora hope Congress will keep the crop insurance provisions within the next farm bill.  The Sykoras say it may be a week or longer before they start harvesting their corn.
