Record spring rains, planting delays, and dry conditions in the summer have made it a challenging growing season.
DTN meteorologist Bryce Anderson says farmers can expect
similar conditions in the coming years.
“The prospect of these heavier precipitation patterns in winter and spring and then drier conditions during the summer are going to stay with us as we continue on,” he says.
But, Ceres Solutions Agronomist Betsy Bower says there are things
that growers can do to improve their ability to plant on time and adapt to these
conditions.
