The First Pictures of Spring



What happens when the Fond du Lac County UW-Extension office gets a new digital camera?  The Crops Guy heads to the field!  These pictures were taken the afternoon of March 27.


This winter wheat, short of some frost burn, looks
in pretty good shape as we head into spring.

Alfalfa starting to come to life in Fond du Lac.
Reports are that most fields look good.
Hopefully, we won't burn it back again with frost.

This forage aftermath does wonders for
winter survival. I never was a big promoter
of a late fall cut.
