Farmers are getting the itch to plant, but some might not be starting for a while yet. Ryan Martin is an ag meteorologist from Warsaw, Indiana. He says good planting weather in parts of the Corn Belt will be hard to come by. “My opinion is we are not going to see planting weather over a large part of the country anytime soon.

In the west, concerning soil temperatures and soil conditions, I think we can get there or at least to a plantable level sooner than in the East."
