Video: Solar Storm and Tornadoes Slow Down Farmers

There has been a lot in the news lately about Nebraska and the weather: everything from floods to tornadoes! thankfully, we are all okay and so is Pepper! (oh and our buildings and equipment.) Many Nebraskans lost their homes. Then, a few days later, we experienced solar storms that cut out our tractors valuable GPS navigation technology. In this video, we assess the flooding we experienced (so thankful to finally get some rain!) and replant our fields. Thank you for watching today's video, and we'll see you in the next one! If you want to see the full news clips from the beginning of the video, I got them from these links below and use them under fair use.
