Grower Update: Vilas Cranberry
Hello everyone as always I hope you are all well and enjoying summer. Things are going pretty darn well up north, we have been lucky with missing the big storms, getting just enough rain, and sneaking by with only a little frost watch!!! The berries sure seem to be enjoying the warm and humid weather as everyone’s crops are looking very respectable across the board. Nitrogen applications have been all over the place as some sections and marshes are at expected levels for this yield potential, and other sections only have 15-20 units on them and they are still hot. Weather and soil conditions are to factor but definitely keeping us on our toes. Thankfully bug pressure has been on the minimal this year and hopefully it stays that way! We are all enjoying the little breath of air before the craziness of harvest starts to settle in, many marshes are already moving harvest equipment out, servicing, preparing and doing modifications as needed. Look forward to seeing everyone at the trade show this week!!!
