Montana Crop Report Notes Mixed Statewide Conditions
The semi monthly report from the Banking Corporation of Montana at Helena says conditions are reasonably favorable across the state with central regions like Yellowstone Muppelshell and part of Fergus least prosperous. Billings area and sugar beets show strong progress while Cascade and Yellowstone counties report hail damage. Northern Montana has good yields with ongoing winter wheat harvest and alfalfa cutting. Rain is light but steady for hay making. fruit crops remain poor. rust issues limited to Wibaux and Sheridan. Government figures note improved grain and hay since June, yet a 35.3 percent overall U S crop rise contrasts with expected Montana gains, raising price prospects for wheat. New farm ventures include 600 acres in seed beans in Clark's Fork valley yielding 26 to 20 bushels per acre at $4.85 per bushel and cucumber planting under pickling contracts. Local observers caution that government optimism may outpace some counties.
