According to the Minnesota Agricultural Statistics Service, much of the area has an adequate amount of topsoil moisture, but we should expect to start having some moisture issues if the temperatures stay high without rain. If we do not see rain in the region in the next few days or weeks, supplemental watering is going to be essential for plants. Plants will be put under high amounts of stress, wilting, or could possibly die without an adequate amount of water.
