Alabama Web site assists during drought crisis

Drought continues to take its toll across Alabama. Livestock producers are considering selling portions of their herds. Row crop and forage producers may lose entire crops.

The Alabama Cooperative Extension System, through its county Extension agents and subject matter specialists, is helping producers make the best management decisions during this crisis.

One tool for farmers is a new Extension Web site, ACES Issues: Drought. The site includes a variety of information focusing on all areas of agricultural production as well as weather information and other topics.

Visit regularly to find the latest drought information from the Alabama Cooperative Extension System.
