On Tuesday’s Crop Watch broadcast, RRFN caught up with Jared Hagert in the Emerado/Northwood, North Dakota area while he was planting soybeans. “Soil conditions are really good right now,” said Hagert. “We have a couple other crops to finish up with navy beans, sunflowers and finish up the last little bit of canola, too.” Hagert is very happy with the spring wheat. Corn stands are good, but the crop was slower to emerge with the cooler temps. What about weeds? Hagert laughed, “weeds like to grow in any season so we’re trying to stay on top of that.”
