N.D. farmers race to combine corn before flooding
Some North Dakota farmers are in a race to combine corn before fields are flooded.
ARGUSVILLE, N.D. (AP) — Some North Dakota farmers are in a race to combine corn before fields are flooded.
Grain truck driver Dan Sheldon of Buffalo said corn is being harvested throughout eastern North Dakota. He said, “You got to get it when you can get it.”
The corn was left in the field last fall due to early snow.
Duane Nitschke said corn was being combined across from his home in Argusville on Friday. Nitschke said he had never seen combines harvesting corn when the fields were surrounded by floodwater.
