(NAFB) As 2021 wrapped up, the winter season has been different from normal expectations. Ryan Martin is an agricultural meteorologist from Warsaw, Indiana. He says when looking at current weather patterns, it’s getting harder to figure out what represents “typical” weather.
While the warmer-than-normal temps many areas enjoyed in late fall and early-winter won’t stick around, he says the winter is still trending above normal.
Looking ahead to next spring, Martin says some of the challenges farmers saw during harvest may continue into the upcoming planting season.
2021 brought significant drought to farm country. Martin says some of the soil is completely recharged while other areas are still short.
