A May frost and drought persisting through the growing season and into the winter slashed hay production in Montana’s Gallatin Valley. Supplies for baling hay, fertilizer and heavy machinery, too, were subject to shortages. Snow is lacking also when it ought to be waist-high, so some moisture ahead of the next growing season would be helpful.
