Puzzle through ag weather

Puzzle through ag weather

    For many people, weather is the ultimate small-talk topic. But for the farmers who feed the world, weather is huge – it can be the difference between a bumper crop and a total loss – so weather talk is anything but small. And Eric Snodgrass, Nutrien’s principal atmospheric scientist, says he…
