Weather holds back farm work in Nebraska
Lincoln UPI The State Federal Division of Agricultural Statistics said farmers are eager to begin field operations but weather has held them back. Frost largely melted but topsoils remain moist and wet, hindering entry to fields. Blizzard raised soil moisture in some places while high winds blew snow from open fields. Wheatland River greening halted by snow and cold, delaying further growth. Still, both crops survived winter in good condition.
