    By Heycameraman  |  Posted July 30, 2012  
     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     Heycameraman is a photojournalist for a local ABC affiliate in Kansas City, Missouri. He and a reporter recently met with a farmer from Carrolton, Missouri, who showed them his destroyed corn crop. 'They're seeing their friends and neighbors struggle financially with this drought. They wonder if they'll be able to recover to farm next year. And they're talking about the higher food costs this fall and winter. And maybe praying for a little rain.'
    - hhanks, CNN iReport producer

    Thousands of acres of corn crop destroyed by drought near Carrollton Mo. July 25th.
