Sowing work progressing at a rapid pace

26 April 2018 - Redactie Boerenbusiness

Despite a late start in some arable regions, sowing of sugar beets, among others, has gone smoothly. High temperatures and an excellent soil structure have helped.

Contractors are working overtime, especially on sandy soils, to get manure on the land for a new crop.
