Northern Aroostook
Warmer temperatures have finally arrived and given
the plants a real boost. Soil moisture is good and the crop is off to a
good start.
Central Aroostook
The warmer temperatures
experienced in the area the past several days made quite a noticeable
difference. Growers have completed any necessary herbicide applications
for the most part and are now cultivating some fields.
Southern Aroostook
The crop got a real lift from the
warm temperatures during the past week. Growers are finishing up any
remaining necessary herbicide applications and have begun to cultivate
some fields.
