Drought continues to affect farmers in southeast Missouri as hay thefts take place. Some farmers have set up trail cameras to monitor their valuable hay as prices for it rise and supplies are not abundant.
Springs were running dry that did not go dry during the 2012 drought. New water lines have been installed to bring water to livestock.
