We have gotten over 3 inches in the last 3 days, our river is going to flood when it crests and we are expecting much more today. Not much is growing around here for the corn and soybean crops, wheat is not seen but I have not been way out looking. As for the grass farmers like me, it is wonderful. It stayed cool enough and wet enough for my cool season brome to flourish. Last year was a disaster and unless it burns up with the high temps like we had last year it should be a bumper crop making up for last year in expenses.

SO, the food most of you eat will be fed at least good grass this year but the rest of it sounds very iffy from Kansas anyway.
