NW Ohio
I have farmed myself in two droughts, 2002 and 2008. And I remember well the 1988 drought helping at harvest. In both 02 and 08 my crop was about half a crop vs. what would be expected in a normal year.
It is perspective, a western drought is zero, an eastern drought is half or better crop.
But there are some who post pictures claiming drought and then harvest 250 bushel corn.
What is your definition of drought?
