Minnesota Agronomists Report Mixed April Conditions for Corn Planting

Minnesota Agronomists Report Mixed April Conditions for Corn Planting

Minnesota agronomists have described April 2026 as a month of mixed conditions for corn planting across the state. While 42% of Minnesota's corn crop was planted by the end of April, irregular temperatures and field conditions created challenges for growers. Overnight temperatures dropped as low as 25°F (-4°C) during the week ending May 3, causing apprehension about germination and emergence. Agronomists noted that while soil conditions were ideal in some areas, cooler weather slowed planting progress and made farmers hesitant to proceed. Despite these challenges, moderate rains and dry soils in southern Minnesota have provided favorable conditions for early-planted corn to get off to a strong start.
