NDSU Extension water quality experts offer advice on cleaning flooded water wells.

Cattle producers should be prepared for wet, muddy conditions and possible flooding this spring.

The prospects for the normal development of winter wheat that survived the winter and spring flooding is quite good.

Waterlogging affects a number of biological and chemical processes in plants and soils that can affect crop growth in the short and long term.

Producers can plant forage mixes for grazing that increase the soil’s water-holding capacity and add nitrogen to the soil.

However, producers are worried about whether average yields in 2013 will materialize. Unlike last spring, soil moisture is depleted.

Nitrate levels are a concern when haying or ensiling corn.

NDSU Extension specialists encourage ranchers to inquire about the Livestock Indemnity Program.
