Ag Department Forecasts A Winter Wheat Output
The Agriculture Department forecasts next year's drought plagued winter wheat crop at 624,953,000 bushels based on Dec 1 conditions. This would be 110,042,000 bushels less than this year's 734,995,000 and below the 10 year average of 873,690,000. A short crop would hurt growers’ incomes but surpluses from past big crops would assure ample supplies for consumers.
