A few farmers in the region pulled the planter out of the shed and worked around wet spots in the field this weekend. Highs in the upper 60s and 70s will help dry things out. However, a few rains are possible, with the best chance coming on Thursday. Martinson Ag Risk Management President Randy Martinson expects the Cornbelt to see significant planting in crop progress today’s report. Specialty crops, like canola and dry beans, are being influenced by late planting. “The same scenario goes for barley; I think Busch is calling customers this week to see if they will increase acres because they’re worried about barley production across the Northern Plains this week.”
