For Murdock, Minnesota farmer Mike Yost, the crops are in the ground. “It’s been an interesting year where we have been in the field in three different stretches. We planted sugarbeets in April; most of the corn in late April; and in mid-May, we finished corn and planted soybeans.” Replants have been a necessity. “We have had to replant some of the corn that was planted in late April. We came into the spring being extraordinarily dry and we are now extraordinarily wet.”
