Heat, humidity kill at least 2,000 Kansas cattle, state says

• Extreme heat and humidity killed thousands of cattle in Kansas in recent days.
• The deaths add pain to the U.S. cattle industry as producers have reduced herds due to drought and grappled with feed costs that climbed as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine tightened global grain supplies.
• Kansas is the third largest U.S. cattle state behind Texas and Nebraska, with more than 2.4 million cattle in feedlots.
