A farmer in southwest Minnesota says he’s never seen drought stress in corn this early in the growing season.
Matt Widboom of Worthington tells Brownfield barely an inch of rain has fallen since he finished planting around the beginning of May.
“I talked with my dad whose been farming for 60 years and (asked) him if he’d ever seen corn stressed so much in June when it was only knee-high, it was already rolling up to pineapple level.
