A Million Dollar Rain for Barnesville Farmers

Published June 6, 2018

Barnesville, Minnesota farmer Jake Thompson is happy with his crop. When RRFN visited the farm Tuesday for Crop Watch, the region received rain. “A lot of farmers prefer to call it the million dollar rain. I think it did help a lot of some of those beans that were maybe late and in a little dried dirt come back through. It definitely gave the corn a shot in the arm and makes the wheat thicken up a little bit.”

RRFN’s Crop Watch coverage is sponsored by Crary Industries.
