Spring has sprung with a vengeance, and warmer weather means that severe weather is more likely. That can contribute to power outages, road blockages, flooding, and other things that may affect agricultural production. Winter weather like ice storms can also cause problems for farmers trying to take care of their livestock, and get milk to dairies. So farmers need to be continually prepared for what to do if weather impacts affect your farm. This article from the National Pork Board provides some guidance for swine farmers, but their ideas are generally good for all farmers and ranchers. You can read it at Pork Business here.
