The University of Nebraska's National Drought Mitigation Center newsletter DroughtScape covers drought impacts, including new state-level impact tables for the U.S. Drought Monitor. It also marks the 20th anniversary of the Drought Monitor and a new USDA fact sheet on 12 drought-related programs.
Better drought impact tracking and clearer links to USDA programs help officials and producers assess drought risk. The newsletter has no direct effect on feed commodity prices.

Moves of each commodity's benchmark from the last close before the event. Historical reads pool past events of the same kind; they describe what happened, not what will. Not investment advice.
