(Hutchingson, MN) -- If conditions stay ideal, Minnesota farmers can expect a strong harvest this fall. Crops across the state are looking picture perfect so far. Dave Nicolai is a U-of-M extension educator in Hutchinson and says if the crops are growing, so are the weeds. He says farmers should keep a close eye on the weeds, especially those that are herbicide resistant. Nicolai says we should have a better idea of specific plant disease, if any, when the new crop update comes out next month.
