We also pay a lot more for land and inputs and we NEED those yields to break even this year, which we won't have. Will we have a crop after close to 60 days without more than a couple sidewalk wetters? Probably...but there'll be a lot of fields off 40 percent from the last few years.

Just because we aren't completely brown like we were in 2012, doesn't mean our crops aren't suffering.


Per your post, this whole thing that the crop has to be 5 bpa before its a "severe drought" is silly...we've had less rain than 2012, we just didn't get 2 weeks of hot dry wind this year or we'd look the same as then.
