Continued Rains Delay Harvest and Raise Rust Fears
Wheat harvest in the Pampa area is likely delayed by last night’s 1.12 inch rain. Black rust may develop on later wheat due to moisture, while early wheat should escape major damage. If hot clear weather returns the rust risk may ease, but prolonged rain could mirror the heavy 1941 May-June rains. A PMA meeting in Amarillo discussed emergency grain bins to ease storage, with plans available at the county agent’s office.
