Wheat harvest pain and distant hope for custom cutter crew
Mike Strunk, a veteran custom harvester based in Silver Lake, reports the worst wheat harvest in 20 years across the western belt. Drought slashed 9,000 acres, insurance rules forced field destruction, and some 2,400 acres near Cheyenne Wells were lost. Strunk searches eastward for work, noting men, machines, and international crew including four South Africans and three Australians. His son Trent joined for a week, underscoring the tough season and stubborn resilience.
