Wheat has started to go in the ground in North Dakota, but it is a ‘hit-and-miss’ situation. “I think all in all we’re still sitting pretty good and I think guys are optimistic that we’re still ahead of the curve as far as the planting season,” said Jim Peterson, policy and marketing director, North Dakota Wheat Commission. “Whatever little moisture they can get is going to be beneficial for getting the crop up and going.” Based on the lack of snow this winter, Peterson said timely rains will be necessary this summer.
