Farmer says fieldwork is underway, but planting is not

Southern Ohio farmer Greg Corcoran says spring fieldwork is underway despite cool conditions.

“It’s been wet on and off, but mostly cold. We haven’t had that temperature rise where we would like to see,” he says. “We’ve been able to apply 90 percent of our anhydrous. Dryer stretches, even though they were cold, allowed us to put a lot of our inputs in that we typically do ahead of planting.”

Corcoran tells Brownfield he’s hopeful they’ll be able to plant this week.
