Texas farmers, ranchers lose billions to 2024 weather disasters

The total incurred damages in Texas was over $3.4 billion.

Drought and excessive heat contributed to more than 66% of Texas’ losses. The most severe drought impacts occurred between June and September.

Texas cotton farmers saw $1.8 billion in losses, and there was a loss of $768 million in forage and rangeland damage and $257 million in wheat losses from drought.

Early in 2024, the Smokehouse Creek Fire caused $123 million in losses, according to Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service. It was the largest wildfire in Texas and burned more than 1.2 million of acres in the Panhandle.
