Marion,ks | We farm in the red area on the drought map in Kansas. Its worse than 2012. All the streams are drying up.I have no water to irrigate thank god do not have corn under the pivot this year. My biggest problem is water for cattle enough grass but streams ,ponds and wells are going dry. My corn has been a insurance claim for a month its starting to fire most plants did not even make ear. The soybeans are hanging on but starting to flip leaves on tighter ground. Only 8.5 inches of moisture this year 8inches below normal. |
