already noted crop loss due to
the dry summer to date.
Don Pullen, Associate Agri-
cultural Representative for Hur-
on, reported this week that most
crops had been suffering for a
want of moisture, although he did
state that soil moisture appeared
to be more abundant in South
Huron than in other areas of
the County.
The harvesting of oats and
barley is progressing at full
speed in the county and reports
indicate that yields are slightly
below average as a result of the
prolonged dry spell.
However, farmers in this area
are much better off than their
neighbors in Bruce and Grey
County. Reports indicate many
farmers in those counties are not
even harvesting their crops be-
cause it is not worth their effort.
pastures in this area have been
badly affected and many farmers
have had to increase supple-
mental feeding in order to main-
tain milk flow.
While this year's hay crop was
above average, many farmers
still won't have enough for the
winter months because they have
to use it already.
Bean growers are still uncer-
tain as to the condition of their
crops. While many early blos-
soms dropped off due to the
drought and heat conditions, some
have experienced a second
growth and could still make a
recovery.
