I'm in the dark red. It's on my mind every day. Where's the moisture going to come from. Pastures took a beating last July and August. Never really recovered . The only tiles running around me is heavy soils that pull a lot of ground and at that it's coming out slow and two fingers wide. Light soil around me tile hasn't ran in over a yr.. need atleast 3 to 4 inches of soaking rains to get us back to near normal.
