Northern Iowa (RI) — Seed supply shortages could cause problems for farmers in Iowa this spring.
Flooding early in the season last spring devastated parts of southern Minnesota and northwestern Iowa, and Casey Staloch, with Albert Lea Seed Company in Minnesota, says seed production really suffered.
Staloch says there are other seed options if a farmer can’t get access to their first choice.
Heavy rains last spring led to historic flooding in northwest Iowa, in communities including Rock Valley, Sioux Rapids, and Spencer, impacting hundreds of homes and thousands of residents.
