We introduced you to two producers this spring as they faced planting questions and weather challenges. We check in to see how things look and their level of optimism.
Those producers in areas with plenty of crop options had some big choices this spring. Wheat, corn, soybeans, sunflowers and cotton all were doing their best in prices to "buy acres." Cameron Peirce is a producer in Kansas we talked to earlier this spring. We find out what won out for him and how the crop looks at the July 4th holiday weekend. Paul Thomas is in North Dakota where sunflowers and soybeans are looking good while the corn is doing its best to catch up with the long, warm days.
