After you have taken what steps you can to drought proof your farm, here are three oft neglected actions that will help you as a farmer to survive a drought: 1) Don't worry, 2) Don't murmur, and 3) Pray.

  • Good word, brother! It’s so hard to live in faith and be of good cheer when you’re in the thick of hard times, such as drought. I appreciate your channel and the content you put out and this video was no exception! Came here for the sheep and staying for the Godly wisdom! Praying you all receive the rain that you so desperately need.

  • The best drought plan video I've seen yet. Back in June it was dry here. Between the dry conditions and rising cost of fuel, I saw that things were probably going to be rough for getting hay this year. I determined that it would be best to sell off most of my herd, down to my original 5 breeders and my buck. About the time I had most sold, my neighbor told me he wasn't going to do a second cutting because he didn't need it. I asked if he would consider cutting it for me. We made a deal that he would cut it for the price of fuel, so long as it rained. I prayed for rain. We did eventually get rain, not a huge amount, but enough that the grass grew and the hay was beautiful! Don't regret selling off most of my herd, it is giving me a chance to work on my infrastructure with out the pressure of more animals. Will pray you get rain, too.

  • Also…since you mentioned having sold off a sizable portion of your flock, perhaps a future video might cover how you recover your headcount after conditions improve. I’ve not had to downsize my flock yet, but it is part of my plan, if it ever comes to it. But, short of going back to you, other producers, and Craigslist, I am not sure how I would quickly return to prior levels without taking on a lot of risk (disease, lower quality breeding stock, etc.).

  • My issues now are severe illnesses but I can tell you have Jesus in your heart and what a blessing to live each day with that in mind. We all need to learn to abide in the vine (Jesus}, When things get rough press in even closer. Our father wants that so much from us. God Bless!

  • Excellent advice and testimony, brother. Perhaps the thing I appreciate and is enjoy the most about farming is the inescapability of seeing (and depending upon) God’s hand and blessing in the future whole cycle of the processes involved. All the challenges give us an opportunity to learn to be better farmers and to trust in Him and his goodness. Thanks for sharing! Phil

  • Some of the lessons you've learned, albeit the hard way this summer, have already born fruit in your heart and in your spirit. It is not always easy some of the things we need to learn and grow. My prayer for you is God's will... whether rain or continued draught. And, in the mean time, continue to grow and appreciate all that He has given you over the past number of years.
