Rain is fickle in parts the Great Plains. The 2019 season of missed planting because of too much rain has been followed a year later by not enough rain.
“It’s dry,” said Jamie Johnson from Frankfort, South Dakota, during an interview with Brownfield Ag News. “We’ve had less than a half-inch of rain right here at our farm since the Fourth of July.”
Despite the dry spell, crops at the Johnson farm, situated in South Dakota’s northeastern corner, look good.
