v 2.4.3.0

The Utah Department of Agriculture and Food was monitoring the effects of hay shortages as drought hindered grass growth and hay supplies became depleted. Hay yields were halved in most areas and by up to 75% to 90% in southern Utah. Major hay shortages were projected statewide, leaving farmers hard-pressed to feed livestock, which will likely lead to livestock sales to out-of-state buyers.
