Producers are happy with the good quality hay. Pasture conditions are rated as 63 per cent good with 30 per cent in fair condition.

Producers hope for rain and moisture as crops and pastures are beginning to show signs of heat stress.

Crop damage reported in the southeast this week was due to heat stress, wind damage, grasshoppers and other insect pressures.

Producers are also scouting crops for disease and insects, with grasshoppers being a primary concern.

Producers are busy haying and spraying fungicides following the warm and humid weather that is favourable for disease development.

Hay is of good to fair quality for the first cut. Pastures range from good to poor condition, overall, 47 per cent are in fair condition.

Producers made substantial haying progress this past week, according to the crop report for the period of June 28 to July 3.
