NE CO
The wheat is still coming out of dormancy here, and some of the later planted fields are still difficult to row from the road. As far as the "drainage damage", i wonder if you were seeing some of the eroded slopes adjacent to drainages where we have exposed subsoil high in pH and low in available phos. They take forever to green up and never yield like the rest of the field.

I have to agree with Chad, that so far, this is a fairly wet year after last year's rains and a fair snow season. Winds are drying it up pretty quickly now, and as Chad notes, excess water is not usually a problem here. Having said that, farmers here are just getting their windrowed proso millet picked up this week after it laid in the field all winter because of wet conditions.
