With the official arrival of summer this past Sunday, growing season in northwest Iowa is well underway. ISU Extension field agronomist Leah Ten Napel told KLEM that crops in Plymouth County are currently doing well.
Ten Napel says the current cooler temperatures help with stress on the crops, but also slows down growth.
She advises growers to be scouting their fields for insect damage and disease.
Ten Napel says there is a free Field Day planned for July 8th at the Northwest Research Farm near Calumet.
