A west central Missouri farmer says it’s been tough planting this spring between rains. Nathan Alpers tells Brownfield he’s going to replant much of his May planted corn.
“It just rotted in the ground,” he said. “[The] ground got saturated on these rains and it warmed up before it could get out of the ground.”
He said it would only take about three days to replant the necessary fields, but rainfall has made it difficult to string together multiple planting days.
