v 2.4.3.0

Crops in southwest Pennsylvania were parched from the lack of rain. The hay has not grown back, and feed production this year may be just half of the usual 40,000 bushels, which would be enough for the farm’s dairy cattle, but not enough to sell as they usually do. Hay was last cut in May. A livestock producer in Brothersvalley Township with about 1,400 head said that he would likely have to buy more feed for 2025. New Castle News (Pa.), Aug 5, 2024
