Wheat Harvest Dampened by Rains in Kansas
Heavy rains and high humidity stalled the Kansas wheat harvest across most regions, with three inches soaking Hutchinson in three hours. Harvest lagged 10 days to two weeks due to cool spring and wet weather, as crews struggled in muddy fields and forecasts offered little improvement. Prices for commodities such as hard winter wheat and soybeans were listed in Chicago markets.
