Iowa Corn Growers Association President and Decorah corn farmer Bob Hemesath joined me on the phone Thursday to talk about how his planting is going so far. He says he’s heard farmers thinking about switch corn acres to beans due to the rally the last few days. We also discussed projected planting acres, switching corn to beans and what the Trans Pacific Partnership means for Iowa corn farmers.
