In the latest FG Poll, we asked readers: Are you concerned about difficult weather conditions in your area in the coming months?

Lynn Jaynes retired as an editor in 2023.

More than 50 percent of readers who responded said both temperature and precipitation were of concern.

Another 27 percent said precipitation was of concern to them, and a lucky 13 percent said weather conditions were not of concern to them.

In our next poll, we ask: If farm supports were further cut to reduce federal spending, which program should be cut the most?

1. Food aid to low-income American families
2. Conservation protecting water quality
3. Subsidized insurance premiums for weather-related losses
4. Conservation protecting farm land
5. Farm subsidies for commodity crops
