Crop yields were “really down” in Pottawatomie County in northeast Kansas. Some farmers were moving cattle off pastures earlier than usual. Hay production was also poor. The area did not receive any significant precipitation from late July to early October, leaving soybean yields less than half of a normal crop. SF| Successful Farming (Des Moines, Iowa), Oct 20, 2023
