Dear Editor letter from Oklahoma reader on Queensland winter and cattle
A friend in Oklahoma, reading the Lancaster Farming letters, recounts Queensland farming conditions. He notes warm days around 60 degrees, cool nights, widespread winter grain, good May rains, drought impacts on hay at 70 to 80 dollars per ton, sorghum stubble baled for cattle feed, and rising cattle numbers near 7.4 million with pigs at about 20 million.
