[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1851423, member: 25884"] Like [USER=21382]@SmokinM[/USER] we are getting much needed and appreciated rain. I told my friend that I would have gladly taken a couple inches of what y'all have had down there to take the pressure off a little. We had .3 as of last evening, I will go out and check rain gauge later today. There was a good sized part of the state that the local station south of us had the drought monitor showing us in "abnormally dry" zone already... not good for springtime. Many of my dairy farmers I test have held off on planting corn because it was just too dry. They will all be going gangbusters this week as soon as they can get on the ground and not clog up the corn planters. Some have already taken off their wheat/rye as it was heading out, short, but most got it in to be ready to plant. Our hay fields are short and see some grasses close to heading out due to the dry weather we had and too warm too early temps. Much as it gets aggravating, and sometimes devastating, I am still glad that at least the govt cannot control everything like mother nature... [/QUOTE]
