The 2025 Tremont Crop Tour was conducted on 8/19/2025. Going into the tour there were some concern with tip back being an issue as well as Southern Corn Rust. Going off a standard 90K kernal count our yield average came out to be 190.77 down a little over 11 bu./acre compared to 2024 (202.08) that is about a 5.5% decrease in yield. With that being said it feels like realized yield maybe down 10% from last year. We sampled roughly 80 fields throughout our territory, there was a lot of variation of ears even in the same field. We did see some tip back in the fields but not enough to cause a major issue, there was also a decent amount of Southern Corn Rust. Average rows per ear was the major factor that drove our average down. Average rows per ear came in at 15.86, which is the lowest we've seen on the tour in the last 10 years.
