In many areas of the US we had extremely dry conditions. Northern areas and into Canada had the opposite weather. It would not stop raining. Not just small showers, but 2-3 inches at a dump. Even the ducks were carrying umbrellas! As we mentioned in the last newsletter, crops planted on winter forage stubble (see picture page 3) were clearly better than those without the winter crop. Even with winter forage some farms will struggle with forage supply through next year.
