Fergus County farmers cut winter wheat acreage sharply
County Agent Carl H. Peterson estimates Fergus County winter wheat acreage will drop 35 to 50 percent from last season due to late harvest and labor shortages. He projects about 75 000 acres, boosted by better grain condition in Denton and Coffee Creek, while farmers shift toward spring grain and corn. Hog production and poultry, especially turkeys, rise, and sheep survive the winter well amid drought.
