Farm scene on farm of FSA (Farm Security Administration) rehabilitation borrower Nyssa Heights, Oregon, Malheur County. The first year that this land on the Owyhee irrigation project is farmed it is impossible to grow any crops except hay. The farmers in the beginning had a few cows because of lack of funds to start herds, but within two or three years, herds began to increase and now much of the feed on the farm is used by home herd
