Sampled North of Springfield Today

Field work begins in earnest this week.  Blogs will be posted later in the day except for an occasional rainy day.  I sampled one of my early customers today.  Soil Temperature at 4 inches was 40 degrees Fahrenheit.  Soil was frozen on the surface in the morning.

Field activity was limited, but I did see four anhydrous ammonia nurse tanks in transport.  I also saw someone field cultivating in the afternoon.  It looked a little wet, but I suspect lots of people will be moving in that area.  There are some wet spots.  A corn field next to Williamsville was covered with water.    

I got my Weather and Crop Report yesterday.  IASS is reporting that plating is behind last year.  Really there was nothing but weather information and wheat condition.  They reported Oats as 2% planted.
