Soybeans in Grey County

Agricorp is extending the soybean planting deadline for areas of Ontario from June 30 to July 2.

Essex, Chatham-Kent, Lambton, Elgin, Middlesex, Norfolk, Haldimand, Brant and Niagara counties were provided with the two-day grace period due to wet weather creating difficult planting conditions.

Agricorp expects an influx of phone calls related to the delayed planting and asks customers to be patient.
