Independent/Barrett Stinson

While there is still standing water from recent rains at the Husker Harvest Days site that people must negotiate, Gov. Dave Heineman said that while recent rains have brought relief to drought-stricken farmers, not all areas benefited from the precipitation. ÒThe fact is that for many producers, the moisture came far too late, and the result was that many livestock owners sold off their herds,Ó Heineman said. ÒSeven years of drought cannot be repaired with one good month Ñ or even one good year Ñ of rain, and that is why we need Congress to act.Ó
