Soil temperature at Live Oak averaged 65 degrees on Saturday. However, we are expecting cloudy weather and maybe some rain early this week, so planting conditions are not optimal, but this crew will be ready when they "wave the green flag."

Peanut planting in North Florida
A few peanuts went in the ground Saturday on one North Florida farm. Employees were making adjustments to plant six seeds per foot on twin rows and adjusting planting depth. They were also calibrating insecticide and inoculant output.
