Much needed rain on Wednesday, April 18, help pastures make a rapid recovery from drought-stress.
The rain has not slowed land preparation for cotton and peanuts. Growers are proceeding at a rapid pace.
Watermelons are ahead or on schedule for an early harvest, and hopefully higher prices. Submitted by Andy Andreason, Washington County Extension Director
