Crop conditions in Jefferson County deteriorated, due to drought. Peanut producers waited for rain to harvest dryland acres, but had to begin the harvest due to the considerable decline in vine health, increased pod damage and lack of fill. Dryland cotton was in very poor condition. Hay feeding began after pasture conditions declined earlier than usual.
