The Crop Tour isn't what you think it is.

After years of experience with the Pro Farmer Crop Tour, Brian Grete knows there are plenty of misconceptions about what those numbers actually mean.

In this episode, Brian goes behind the scenes to explain how the Tour really works, how fields are selected, what scouts measure and — most importantly — how you should interpret the results.
One big takeaway? Don't just look at the Crop Tour number and compare it to USDA.

The historical context behind the data can be just as important as the number itself.

So when the Crop Tour numbers start coming out, will you know what you're actually looking at?
