Dry Conditions Impact North Dakota Crop

Western North Dakota continues to experience extremely dry conditions. Anthony Mock, who farms near Braddock, says the corn is a lot drier than it usually is. “The first field we took off averaged 13.3 moisture, which this time of year is usually not the case.” He was fortunate not to encounter much disease pressure this year due to the dry weather. Overall, Mock is pleased with the yields of his soybeans and corn.
