Wheat Loss Payout Near $3 Million in Kansas
The Federal Crop Insurance Corporation projects about 2.956 million dollars in insured wheat loss payments in Kansas for 1967, up from 1.851 million last year. Severe drought and freezes driven by insects and weather contributed, with final totals uncertain until after harvest and weather improves.

Feed Tests Run on High Moisture Sorghums
Fort Hays trials from 1961 to 1964 compare dry and high moisture sorghum grain for cattle. Ground ensiled grain and high moisture content improve feed efficiency and daily gains, with 36 percent moisture showing strong results though harvest challenges exist. Kansas studies show 23 to 32 percent moist sorghum requires less dry matter feed for the same gain. Ensuing high moisture sorghum in trench or airtight silos offers potential for low equipment feedlots.

Trade agreements favor Kansas wheat prices in Kennedy Round
Agricultural Economist Ruth E. Clifton explains that a new three year grains agreement under the Kennedy Round sets a minimum base price of 1.73 per bushel at Gulf ports, about 23 cents above the International Wheat Agreement and 13 cents above the national loan rate, with export subsidy payments likely to be phased out. The change benefits taxpayers first, with potential world price gains passed to producers if premiums exceed subsidies.

Next Year s Strawberries Depend on Bed Care Now
Agricultural agent Fred DeLano advises after harvest to renovate beds, fertilize, weed, and narrow row width for next season. Vigorous, well spaced plants with strong leaves yield runners for new plants. moist, well drained soil with 2 percent organic matter aids rooting.
