Field damage due to flooding

Flooding has been affecting everyone from roads to business and even to farm lands. Gene Mohling, County Extension Education Director says farm lands may be in danger of erosion. Mohling says farmers may have to apply fertilizer again to low lying areas. He says it will vary by field and location depending on how fast the water is moving or if the water just sits and then runs off. He says everything is always dependent on the weather.
