Maryland drought worsens crop outlook this summer
Maryland farmers will harvest 36 million bushels of corn and 13.3 million bushels of soybeans, down sharply from last year, as drought conditions reduce yields.

The USDA declared 12 Maryland counties disaster areas, enabling low interest loans and emergency aid for livestock feed. Frederick County groups reported substantial hay donations to support farmers, while recent fire and ambulance calls were logged in the area.
