Andy Bauman prepares for 2021 planting on his farm in Pontiac, IL.
A northeastern Illinois farmer says this planting season is starting off much better than 2019 and 2020.
Andy Bauman farms non-GMO corn and soybeans in Pontiac. He says wet conditions the past two years delayed planting and crop emergence, but it looks like he will get started planting ahead of schedule this year, beginning next week.
“We’ve been in the 80’s for 5 or 6 days now, so the weather conditions we have are way more favorable than last year.
