Damp wheat prompts farmers to delay harvest in Potter County
Wheat harvest in Potter County will start tomorrow and expand across the Amarillo trade area by midweek. Grain men urge farmers to stay out until the wheat dries, as current moisture clogs elevators and buyers take it mainly as accommodation. Optimistic dealers like McDavid Brothers and Roberts Grain & Seed Co expect higher yields, with 4 to 6 bushels per acre previously underestimated and rock Island line crops rising to 10 to 12 bushels. J. N. Beasley has bought carloads at Cyude and Lark, noting wheat is very wet and heavily discounted. harvest should begin near White Deer and Wildorado later this week.
