Fall moisture eased drought concerns in many parts of the Upper Midwest.

But southwest Minnesota farmer Bob Worth tells Brownfield his area could easily slip back into some form of drought next spring if it’s dry.

“Because the subsoil (moisture) is really low. The tilers who are (still) working are finding zero moisture down in the black 3 to 5 feet area, there’s zero moisture. So it’s not going to take long for the top moisture to be gone.”

The Lincoln County corn and soybean grower says there should be enough moisture to get next year’s crop started.
