The light snowfall across the region this past winter and the fact that much of the area was short on rainfall last fall means stock ponds didn’t receive the normal recharge of water this spring. And that could mean problems with the water supply once the cattle are turned out to pasture, according to Miranda Meehan, Extension livestock environmental stewardship specialist at North Dakota State University.
