AFFECTED AREAS:
Otoe County, NE
Palmyra, NE

Start Date: 8/15/2024 - End Date: 10/16/2024
Due to drought and little grass in their pastures, cattle producers in Palmyra opted to use stored feed and creep feed to sustain the cattle through the fall before weaning. They began feeding hay, hauling water and supplementing first-calf heifers in August, which was much earlier than usual. DTN – The Progressive Farmer (Minneapolis, Minn.), Oct 16, 2024
