The big story this winter continues to be the relatively warm soil temperatures as frost is not present for most of the state. Some farmers are taking the opportunity to apply anhydrous ammonia or finish up chisel plowing. The ground has remained warm due to protective snow cover during the very cold first weeks of December.
