Lack of moisture has prevented many crops from properly germinating. This has resulted in widespread bare patches in most fields, with some entire fields bare. In addition, pasture grasses are not growing and have already headed out. Unfortunately, any rain at this point will not alleviate the current poor agricultural conditions. Many farmers, including myself, will be unable to recoup input costs.
