Seeding postponed, cattle sales in Franklin County, Kentucky
9/20/2019 4:45:29 PM



CATEGORIES:
Agriculture
Plants & Wildlife
AFFECTED AREAS:
Franklin County, KY

Start Date: 9/18/2019 -  
Seeding of pastures and hayfields was on hold in Franklin County because more rain was needed for planting. Hemp and late tobacco have been irrigated for several weeks. Cattle were getting short on grass because the lack of rain kept it from growing back, and some producers were already feeding hay and even selling cattle. The State-Journal (Frankfort, Ky.), Sept. 18, 2019
