Late Planting Decision Aid

OSU Extension has developed this decision aid "estimated yield and profit by planting date - corn, soybeans or preventative planting crop insurance".  It is a downloadable Excel spreadsheet that will allow you to enter your own production information to determine which choice might be best for your operation. This aid allows users to enter their own "assumptions" about maximum yield potential, harvest market prices, input costs, & crop insurance levels.
