Peterson Farms Seed District Manager Travis Winter says the crop conditions in his Belgrade, Minnesota area are all over the board. There’s some corn and soybeans that look very good and others that got in too late and look pretty tough. “Mudding the crop in has been a problem. We had a short window to plant and folks mudded the crop in and it is showing up now in the field.” Peterson Farms Seed was represented on Seed Row at Farmfest. The big talking point was the new Enlist trait for soybeans. “I walked a lot of fields the day after Enlist got sprayed and the giant ragweed and waterhemp were lying flat on the ground already. I came back two weeks later and saw brown, crispy weeds and a clean field.”
