A meteorologist says a mild La Nina event is causing delays for Brazilian farmers. Eric Snodgrass with Nutrien Ag Solutions tells Brownfield it’s normally very dry over the Brazilian winters and farmers are anxious to plant now, but most cannot roll the planters yet.

Snodgrass says the La Nina is holding weather patterns, preventing a pre-plant soaking in Brazil.
