Lange says he's heard of a few reports of soybeans being planted (where soil conditions have been suitable) but notes its still a little early for them.
Stats show that seeding progress at four percent for this time of the year is slightly behind the 5-year average of nine percent.
Farmers are noting that weeds such as kochia, volunteer canola & wheat, flixweed, fleabane, foxtail barley, redroot pigweed, lamb’s quarters, thistles, and dandelions are starting to show up.
Lange reminds producers to scout and use burn-off products to control weeds they see and to use Pre-emergent products with residual control.
