Wheat planting is spreading east across Kansas with a likely finish around October 1. Farmers face a new decision on overplanting due to reduced marketing penalties. Last year Kansas seeded 10,641,000 acres with 8,350,700 harvested amid drought and insect losses. Officials expect notable fall overplanting to conserve ground and provide pasture, though county officials worry some farmers are planting too quickly.
