Farmer hopeful new technology will help make up for planting delays

A northwest central Ohio farmer says she’s excited to test out new technology as the planting season picks up speed.

Patty Mann tells Brownfield “last year we started a row starter on our corn planter and this year we added high-speed planting units so hopefully we’ll be able to make it really count when we get the opportunity.”

She’s hopeful they’ll be able to play catch-up after weather-related delays.”

“We’ve had some other extremes and it seems like our planting window continues to shrink,” she says.
