The unprecedented hot, dry weather in the upper Midwest continues to deteriorate large acreages of the small grains.
In some cases, grain yield potential has declined to a point where harvesting the small grains as forage may make more sense than waiting to harvest the crop as grain, according to North Dakota State University and University of Minnesota Extension specialists. Reports of producers chopping small grains for forage already have come in from dry areas of North Dakota.

ST. PAUL University of Minnesota Extension will host a series of virtual small grain workshops in February to address successful small grain management.
The regional-based workshops will be informal conversations around production agronomics, variety selection and economics. They will focus on small grain production in southern Minnesota, but are open and applicable to all small grain producers.
For southwest Minnesota, the workshop is from 4 to 6 p.m. Feb. 17.
The workshop is being offered via Zoom in lieu of the in-person southern Minnesota small grain workshops.
