Fieldwork and planting have been ongoing once fields dried enough following the significant rainfall events experienced in the area in mid-April. Although two weeks ago we experienced a number of uncharacteristically warm days, the weather this week continues to vary, as some days have been relatively warm but many nights have been relatively cool, with some even falling below freezing. Those who have recently planted may see slower emergence due to the consistently colder nighttime temperatures. However, the next week should bring temperate weather to facilitate further planting progress and good conditions for crop emergence across the area.
