Northeastern states including Pennsylvania and New York face a developing crisis as storm Agnes hit hard last June. New Holland Division of Sperry Rand collaborates with the National Hay Association and American Forage and Grassland Council on a nationwide survey to assess supplies and help farmers cope.

Egg Production Dips but Hens Not Lazy
The Agriculture Department reports 5.9 billion eggs laid in July, down 1 percent from a year earlier as producers run fewer flocks, averaging 304.2 million hens in July, down 3 percent from last year. By August 1 shelling was 62.3 eggs per 100 birds daily, up from 60.9. Hay prices may rise next winter if NE shortages persist, with May hay at a national $31.10 per ton high and potential regional shifts and higher shipping costs.
