Milk Shippers Strained by Severe Late Summer Drought
Maryland Virginia milk producers face one of the worst late summer droughts in years. About 96 percent of dairy herds are on winter feeding of hay and silage, raising costs from 60 cents to 2.50 per cow for equivalent nutrition. Production fell five percent last week though field feeding may restore normal output. Loans from Farm Credit Administration are urged as hay supplies shrink. corn crops also suffered. Fairfax County Expert Joe Beard warned most farms will run out of hay by January.
