Plots are bursting with activity

19 April 2018 - Redactie Boerenbusiness

It is bursting with activity on arable fields. For example, the potato planters started at companies that have their beets and onions in the ground. A lot of manure is used in the northeast.

In the southwest, the story is different. The sowing work has only just started there, as a result of heavy rainfall.
