CLIMATE CHANGE IMPACTS FAMILY FARMS
Monsoon like rainfall flooding fields delaying planting. Or summer drought causing crop failure.
Or extended periods of extreme heat. Or winters without sufficient snow cover to protect your alfalfa crop.
More farms needing to switch from a dairy economy to “who knows what”, we may soon no longer be the “Dairy State”.
