Weather Review Says Wet Winter Boosts New Mexico Crops
The first weekly weather and crop review for the 1941 season reports one of the wettest winters in history, bringing excellent soil moisture and ample irrigation water in all main districts. Wheat suffered wind damage and some cutworm effects, while cotton and alfalfa lagged. Truck crops and vegetables show promise in Pecos Roswell areas, with abundant soil moisture in bean regions but delayed planting. Livestock fared well. Mosquero foresees the best spring season in 30 years.
