Itâs a busy time of the year for farmers as spring planting continues. In Montana, planting conditions vary across the region with some areas in better conditions than others.
This year one of the driest areas in America is Northeast Montana. Despite this, farmers are back in the field planting another high-quality crop of cereal grains, pulses, and oilseeds.
âWell, I still think there s some opportunity out there for us to try to optimize,â said Adam Carney, who farms in the Peerless and Scobey areas. âWe still have to go through the steps and put the seed in the ground. And as we re standing here right now, this is probably the best seeding conditions I ve had all year. Hopefully, they continue to get better. It takes rain to get more rain. So hopefully all the crop comes up in rows and has the opportunity to get the next shower.â

GREAT FALLS, Mont. - To say the pandemic has changed our lives would be an understatement. It has changed the way we learn, interact, and work, especially for those in the healthcare field.Â
We caught up with Montana VA nurse manager for the northeast region, Ray Tierney, to see what exactly goes into his job and how he is protecting veterans around the Treasure State.Â
A typical day at the clinic is already very busy. He says keeping the operations going without COVID-19 was a task in and of itself. This year has been a game changer, Tierney said.Â
He arrives at the clinic an hour and a half before it opens, getting daily operations started before many of us are even out of bed.Â
