Neosho County Reports Minor Wheat Damage From Freeze
Neosho County shows scattered damage in low areas with about 10 percent of wheat affected. Northern Kansas suffered far more, with up to 50 percent in some counties. Experts note variability by field stage, shallow corn planting, and hybrid sensitivity to early growth. ASCS offices advise farmers on disaster credit rules and replant plans. Final damage estimates await harvest and further assessment by extension agents and state officials.
