Due to excessive amounts of rainfall and cool soil temperatures, we were finally able to get our sunflowers planted. We planted one youth field and two adult fields on Thursday, May 8, 2014. The youth field is approximately 50 acres located on Fullen North Tract on Jim Fullen Road. One adult field is approximately 55 acres and is located on the Fullen South Tract on Sunk Lake Road. The other adult field is approximately 70 acres located on the Yankee Bar Unit on Crutcher Lake Road.
The Fig Field Unit has been continuously flooded by the Mississippi River over the last month. The river is beginning to slowly fall. Hopefully, we will be able to get in the fields very soon.
