Montana Farmers See Mixed Crop Prospects Amid Moisture
The Bureau of Agricultural Economics reports Montana crop prospects improved last week but excessive moisture harms some fields. June rains boosted soil moisture, with warmth needed for late crops. Soggy northcentral soils lodge winter wheat and impede tilling. some regions report hail and cloudburst damage. Flax seeding continues. sugar beets thinned over 60 percent. Beans thrive in Carbon and Yellowstone counties. corn grows to about 10 inches in Yellowstone. A Heats infestation hits alfalfa, while grasshopper levels are light in most areas. The REA approves a $225,000 loan to Hill County Electric Co-op for 180 miles of lines. Dairy associations report May butterfat yields led by Lake County, then Gallatin, Bitter Root No. 1, and Yellowstone. Miles City Flying Service prepares for July 1 aerial mosquito spraying using DDT emulsion. Kinsey project area sprayed for grasshoppers. hatchery output totals 1,584,000 birds since January, down 13 percent from 1947.
