Harvest Begins as Smoke From Arizona Wildfires Hovers Over Kansas
Kansas wheat harvest starts under hazy skies from Arizona smoke drifting into Reno County and beyond. Farmers report strong test weights despite extreme heat and drought, with yields varying from 10 to 60 bushels an acre. Ackerman of Meade Co-op notes early activity and hope for some fields reaching 30 bushels. Grant County irrigated wheat suffers, with 50 to 60 percent of normal cuts and 25 to 30 percent intake. It is a challenging start to the 2011 season.
