Farmers Get Wheat Cards in Madison County Drive

Wheat marketing cards have been issued to more than 90 percent of Madison County wheat growers since distribution began two weeks ago. Over 1,400 growers have cards, mostly in the first ten days, with a few cases where acreage not yet measured affected eligibility. All wheat growers need a card to sell, or face penalties. Some 200 cards cover crops under 15 acres, aimed at small Indiana and Ohio farms where past acreage can’t guide allotments. Eighteen cards were issued Monday as harvest nears. hot weather hasn’t harmed local wheat yet though oats and gardens show stress.
