Many farmers in the Upper Midwest are still weeks away from beginning fieldwork.
Mikayla Tabert of Red Lake Falls in northwest Minnesota says winter seems to be hanging on with a snow storm as recently as last week.
“We’re a long ways out. I think we’re two and-a-half weeks before we’re even starting anything. We’ve still got snow in ditches for sure.”
Tabert grows corn, soybeans, wheat, canola, and sunflowers.
