Spring Seeding Plans Continue

Spring seeding is about a month or so away.

David Hamblin, owner of Red River Seeds at Morris, talked about how the COVID-19 outbreak is impacting his business.

"Right now we're trying to put deliveries on hold, hoping that things are a little clearer a month down the road. We're not typically doing a lot of deliveries at this time of year yet anyways. Most of the time it would start beginning of April, so we're trying to keep that on pause. Anybody that does really want to have their seed at home, we're just trying to respect some of the distances and interactions having things prepared in advance for somebody to pickup so that we can limit the amount of time that guys have to be here."

Hamblin says farmers don't really have the option to put their operation on hold like other businesses may be able to do.
