Wheat progress and problems in state crop report
A weekly crop review from the state and federal departments of agriculture reports wheat headed in 10 southern counties and reached boot in most northern areas. The Southwest is dry and needs moisture for harvest, while oats were damaged by hail and rains caused erosion in north central counties. Corn planting is active with limited replanting expected in several counties as rains aid growth despite a late start.
