Bitter cold weather blast stresses cattle and wheat
Texas cattle and wheat face stress from a brutal cold front with wind chills to minus 22 and snow in the Panhandle. Experts say feedlot weight gain will dip briefly and cow calf conditions worsen, but long term damage appears limited as pastures and wheat endure the freeze. Sugarcane harvest continues in South Texas while West Central Texas reports light snow.
