Wheat harvest heads north as conditions favor yields
Dry weather boosted Kansas wheat harvest with southern counties finishing by weekend while northern and western areas move toward full cuts. Statewide yields run above average with 60 bushels per acre in Kingman Sedgwick and yields 35-50 in Comanche and Kiowa. Elevators remain full, routing grain to northern terminals amid ongoing storage pressures.

Roberts plan shields farm exports with flexible sanctions
Senator Pat Roberts proposes a targeted change to trade sanctions on grain exports, attaching it to the annual agriculture spending bill. The plan would allow the president to avoid automatic broad sanctions and protect grain credits under GSM-102, preserving Pakistan as a major buyer while keeping ally and competitor dynamics in view. Wheat prices have fallen to seven year lows, risking further farm income declines if exports are curbed. The measure could ride with either the $56.8 billion agriculture package or a later defense authorization bill.
