Parts of northeastern North Dakota received a little bit of rain this past week. Grand Forks farmer Paul Sproule says the crops could use more moisture. “It’s that four letter word: rain,” said Sproule. “We need it and we need it bad. The corn is tasseled, soybeans are flowering, wheat and rye are done and the sugarbeets need more rain.” Sproule was one of the stops of Red River Farm Network’s Know Your Farmer Tour and encourages the public to learn more about agriculture. “Go visit a farm or talk to a farmer if you want to learn. They work hard at what they do, they’re committed and they’re proud of what they do.”
