| Episode Narrative | Drought conditions continued in December over the eastern part of Middle Tennessee. The City of Crossville continued water restrictions despite recent rains. TVA projected that during the next 30 years, water demand will grow more than 16 percent. Mr. Doug Murphy, executive director of the Duck River Agency that represents Maury, Hickman, Marshall, Bedford and Coffee Counties and provides water for about 250,000 customers, said Normandy Lake will have enough water to supply customers until about July in 2008, unless the weather conditions improve to alleviate the drought. The USDA's National Agricultural Statistics Service, Tennessee Field Office, stated that all crops showed significant declines in yields from the previous year. Corn yields were down 19 bushels from last year, and 21 bushels below the 5-year average. Soybean yields were less than half of the 2006 crop yield, and was the lowest yield since 1983. Burley tobacco acreage was down to near record low levels. Hay production was at 2.44 million tons, which was down 43 percent from 2006 crop. Alfalfa production was down 43 percent from 2006. |
