爱荷华州玉米收割完成47% 大豆收割完成78% 均落后五年均值
美国农业部10月26日（星期一）发布的作物进度报告显示，爱荷华州玉米收割已完成47%，比一周前的26%明显加快，但仍落后于五年平均进度67%；大豆收割已完成78%，同样低于五年平均的84%。
在爱荷华州东北部的查尔斯城，玉米种植户斯科特·查登（Scott Tjaden）的收割作业正在加速推进。他告诉布朗菲尔德农业新闻，他今年的单产高于历年平均水平。他说：「我们今年本来很拼，因为觉得环境条件合适。我们原以为雨水会帮上忙；最后没有到我们预期的程度，但仍然是一个好收成。」
爱荷华州是美国玉米和大豆主产州。报告显示，尽管过去一周收割进度大幅提升，该州今年的秋季收割节奏仍整体慢于往年同期水平。
Iowa Corn Harvest 47% Complete, Soybeans 78%; Both Behind Five-Year Average
Iowa's corn harvest reached 47% completion, according to the USDA's Crop Progress Report released Monday, October 26 — up sharply from 26% the previous week but still behind the five-year average of 67%. The state's soybean harvest is 78% done, also behind the five-year average of 84%.
In Charles City in northeast Iowa, corn grower Scott Tjaden said harvest activity has picked up steam and that his yields have been above his yearly average. "We were pushing it this year because we thought we had the right environment," he told Brownfield Ag News. "We did feel like the moisture was going to help us out. It didn't get to quite where we thought we could be, but it's still a good crop."
Iowa is a leading U.S. corn and soybean producing state. Despite the big one-week jump, the report shows the state's fall harvest pace remains slower overall than in a typical year.
