The frequent rain with few dry days for field work have farmers and crop insurance agents preparing for some prevent plant claims. Amy Penterman tells Brownfield, “I’m getting nervous, too, especially with some of these northern counties with heavy soil that haven’t been able to turn any dirt yet.”
Penterman and her husband operate a dairy farm and she is also a crop insurance agent. Penterman tells Brownfield final planting days range from around May 25th in northern counties to May 31st for some central Wisconsin counties, and with prevent plant, it must be a common problem in the area.
