Feed Plans for Winter Amid Drought Pressing Western Nebraska
Western Nebraska and Great Plains endure drought and heat rivaling the 1930s. Dryland feed grain prospects shrink as farmers reconsider feeding cattle this fall and winter. Many will buy feed unless irrigated acres produce their own crop, driving feed barley and corn prices up. Irrigated growers may cut cattle numbers, selling feed to catch top prices. Preparation for the 1965 winter wheat crop proceeds, but moisture limits seeding and raises concerns over September planting deadlines.

Farmers Told Better Off To Join 65 Plan
Ray Davis of Potter told Nebraska Wheat Growers at their January meeting that joining the 1965 wheat program is dollar wise. He said ASC offers flexibility and advantages despite not meeting all farmer desires, noting the program is short on dollars due to the wheat referendum vote and is based on a national over seed allotment of 49.5 million acres with potential increases in diversion payments.
