Some parts of Missouri are receiving rainfall for the first time since June. But farm authorities say that's still not enough to save most row crops damaged by the drought.

The rain will help fill livestock ponds, replenish pastures, and encourage creek flow. Reporting from the state capitol, I'm Kristin Marinec.
