Idaho Frost Impacted Emerged Sugarbeets

There were 6.6 days suitable for fieldwork in Idaho last week, up from 5.7 the previous week. Frost in Cassia and Minidoka Counties caused some sugarbeets to be replanted. Freezing temperatures in Jerome and Twin Falls Counties stunted emerged sugarbeets. Corn planting continued. Pastures in Teton County greened up. Frosty mornings did not impede field preparations. Bannock and Bingham Counties also had frosts; sugarbeets were damaged. Northeastern Idaho had good spring moisture, fair temperatures, and growth.
