When RRFN stopped in the Johnstown, North Dakota area for Crop Watch, dry edible beans were going in the ground. “I would say conditions are optimal,” explained Dylan Karley. “It’s really, really, really good conditions out there, maybe the best we’ve seen in ten years.” Karley looked at the forecast and estimated the majority of North Dakota’s dry bean crop would be planted in this one week. Crop Watch airs each Tuesday noonhour on RRFN during the spring and early summer.
