Chicago June 7 The Sears Roebuck Agricultural Foundation survey shows May weather largely unfavorable with dry spells and late frosts causing crop losses. Despite the poor conditions, the index rises to 8 from 4.4 as farmers feel better about prices for farm products and lower costs of purchases though corn prospects remain only modest.
The report details a sharp decline in winter wheat condition with severe disease in aged areas, large fallowed acres to corn, and a 9.2 percent drop in May. Spring wheat also down due to cool weather, oats down 6.9 percent from last month, and dairy pasture in Wisconsin and Michigan reports poor feeding conditions.
Ample moisture was available but pastures have declined due to persistent cold weather. Farmers report stunted growth and delayed grazing, with livestock feeding concerns rising as temperatures stay low. Local agronomists warn of extended drought risk if cold snaps continue.
Repairs planned to fix cracks in the dome of St Peter's Cathedral in Rome aiming to preserve the historic structure and its famed architectural silhouette. Work will address structural stress and weathering affecting the famed hemispherical dome.
