Iowa Ag Secretary Mike Naig says farmers and ranchers need as much precipitation as they can get this winter.
�We have a lot that we need to restore just the soil profile to get ready for spring. We�ve got a lot of work to do and obviously need a lot of things to change.�
He says the drought is one of his biggest concerns heading into the 2024 growing season. �Here�s a record you don�t want to set,� he said, �180 consecutive weeks of at least D1 drought in the state of Iowa.
