WASHINGTON, D.C. (RFD NEWS) — Snowpack across much of the western United States is below historical averages, limiting runoff and tightening irrigation supplies heading into the growing season. Many are now speculating how these conditions could impact production decisions in the months ahead.
American Farm Bureau Federation (AFBF) economist Danny Munch joined us on Thursday’s Market Day Report with the latest update on current weather conditions in the region and how they might impact agriculture.
In his interview with RFD News, Munch explained where snowpack levels currently stand and why below-average snowpack matters not only for farmers but also for food availability nationwide. He also discussed conditions in the Colorado River Basin and how managed reservoirs are helping the region navigate the ongoing drought.
Finally, Munch outlined the potential decisions farmers and ranchers may face if dry conditions persist.
