Farm labor is very short, according to Uintah County agricultural agents. The only imported labor is sheep shearing crews. Livestock conditions are normal for this time of year. Grass on the lower range is growing, calving is 60 percent complete, farm flock is nearly complete, Yenge sheep lambing 5 percent complete and shearing 15 percent.
