State Corn Crop 86 Percent of Average Yield
Winter feed supplies for cattle on Pennsylvania farms are expected to be short due to below normal corn and hay production in southern and central counties. October 1 corn was 49.72 million bushels, well below last year’s 71.74 million and the 10 year average. Hay output is forecast at 3.36 million tons, near the 10 year average, with generally good quality but drought reducing pastures and roughage.
