Not helping the soils much
Posted: 22 Apr 2011 05:48 AM
Our recent stretch of cool and cloudy weather has cooled off soil
temperatures to well below normal values for this time of year as
illustrated by the featured chart. Normal temperatures are approaching
50 degrees, which is warm enough to support corn growth. With
temperatures this year well below that value, it will take a few warm
and sunny days to get the ground warmed up again and also dried out to
allow equipment to pass over fields.
