Drought has limited impact on local farmers in Lorain County
Local farmers report crops still growing despite widespread drought. U.S. Soil Conservation Service technician Karl Schneider notes heat remains intense with 23 days of 90-plus degrees since June 1, while rainfall this month totals nearly six inches. Dairy cows show reduced milk output, but high milk prices cushion losses. Musk melons and watermelons on Aufdenkampe Farm benefit from drier weather and later rain, improving sweetness.
