Wheat crop prospects lift Kansas and Texas output
In Kansas and Texas the 1990 hard red winter wheat crop is forecast to nearly double last year, pushing U.S. production about 60 percent above 1989 levels. Kansas State University forecasts 422 million bushels with yields around 34.6 bushels per acre. Meanwhile local farm notes cover a horse breeder clinic at ACCC, K‑State student officer elections, and Franklin County Soil and Water Stewardship Week efforts.

Wednesday legislative highlights on budget and reforms
The House approved final budget adjustments 71 to 53 after removing a provision to buy a Topeka office building and adding one for a new computer system. The Senate passed a balancing measure 28 to 12, allowing a 5 percent treasury balance with 2 percent for emergencies, returning to a House to reconcile amendments. The director of property valuation appointment would require Senate confirmation to give the Legislature more control over the Property Valuation Division. The Senate rejected a property tax cut plan for the fourth time but plans another attempt. The House approved a $905.7 million budget for the Regents and seven institutions, sending it to the governor after the Senate backed a measure forcing a negotiating committee for unpaid bills at the University of Kansas Medical Center.
