Snow impedes fall fieldwork in Minnesota

Mild temperatures and widespread snow impacted fall fieldwork in Minnesota.

USDA’s latest weekly crop report says harvest and fall tillage continued, and livestock were being brought in from pasture.

Just three percent of the state’s soybean acreage is left to be harvested, with corn at 86 percent harvested.  That’s two days behind last year but five days ahead of the five-year average.

The sunflower harvest is 84 percent complete.
