North Dakota corn farmers are having a tough time getting their crop in the ground because of a wet spring. U.S. Sen. Heidi Heitkamp is calling on the Agriculture Department to delay the May 25, 2014, crop insurance planting deadline for corn. After that date, farmers will see reduced crop insurance coverage because their crops will be deemed more susceptible to summer heat or fall frost. (AP Photo/Dave Kolpack, File)
