Producers and the public should be on the lookout for cyanobacteria blooms.

Ranchers who have tame grass pastures or hay land should expect at least a 50% reduction in forage production.

Dry conditions likely will persist throughout the summer.

Cyanobacteria often occur in stagnant ponds or dugouts, forming large colonies that appear as scum on or just below the water surface.

Transported hay and feed are one of the primary methods of dispersal for noxious weeds.
