How cold is too cold for Cereals?

Over-night temperatures on May 22 to 23 dipped to -2 to -3 oC in many parts of Ontario. Cereal crops are hardy to light frosts. Leaf tissue on plants that have not hardened off will withstand temperatures of -4 oC or lower before the cells will freeze and damage occurs, making late spring frosts of little consequence.

Today on the farm looks a little bit different… we traded the winter snow in Nebraska for some intense summer heat in Australia! Thanks for spending some time in the tractor cab with us. Uppy was a great farmer to meet and we are very grateful for his hospitality and the opportunity to share our adventures with you.
