    Corn crops

    By KeldaLush  |  Posted July 22, 2012  
     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     Kelda recently moved to Clifford, Indiana, a small township a few miles away from the city of Columbus. The area where she lives is surrounded by farmland, and while driving home she noticed dried up corn crops from the side of the road. 'It looked so weird to me,' she says. 'The bottoms look like they are dying, but the tops of the crops are still green.' She says in some areas water usage is being restricted, and she senses that she and her family will be directly impacted by the drought, although they do not own farmland. 'I feel like prices are going to go up soon because crops of dying from the heat,' she says.
