Over 1 million acres of American crops have been ravaged by bomb cyclone that tore through a large part of the U.S. heartland, Reuters reports. Farms across the country have been under water for over a week, potentially delaying planting and damaging soil. The floods are a result of the bomb cyclone that recently hit the midwest impacting crops in nine states. The flooding came just weeks before planting season began, possibly impacting corn, wheat and soy production this year. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has warned of an “unprecedented flood season,” as it forecasts heavy spring rains. Rivers may swell further as a deep snow packed in northern growing areas melts. “There’s thousands of acres that won’t be able to be planted,” said Ryan Sonderup, a longtime Nebraskan farmer. “If we had straight sunshine now until May and June, maybe it can be done, but I don’t see how that soil gets back with expected rainfall.”
