Nebraska's record corn harvest is running about a week ahead of normal. While intermittent rains have stalled harvest a day or two at a time, they've allowed the elevators to keep up with transportation and storage. More than 30% of the state's corn crop has now been harvested. (IANR photo by Brett Hampton)
