Drought has affected all aspects of a Boone County farm. Hay fields and pastures were dry, and livestock were being fed hay rather than grazing on grass in the pasture. Hay cuttings have been reduced in the number of rolls of hay produced. The pumpkin patch was growing slowly and not yielding pumpkins as it usually does. Pumpkins will likely have to be purchased from elsewhere.
