Near Kintyre, North Dakota, Anthony Mock is doing fieldwork, preparing for 2022. “I’m spraying a pre-emergence herbicide on the corn ahead of next spring. It’s hard to get chemical. I want to have all of my crop protection needs in place by the first of the year,” says Mock. “I’m usually not 100 percent decided on what I’ll plant for next year, but this year, I’ve got all of my crop protection needs. I’m still waiting on a few items, but we’re trying to get things in place.” Mock still has corn to harvest. The corn is low moisture so far, about 17 percent. “We got good, heavy test weights. We were lucky being in a spot where there were good rains. We’re one of the few farms in the area that got a crop.”
