Wheat sales surge in Umatilla County markets
Wheat and barley markets showed high activity last week with about 400,000 bushels changing hands at 7 cents under the local price. Numerous buyers and sellers from Pendleton to Hermiston participated as farmers cleared storage, though much grain remains, especially barley. The period featured heavy turnover from Thursday evening to Saturday evening, with prices near 70 cents and buyers down to 69 cents for remaining lots. Nearby notes mention a fruit inspector touting Cummings Perfection apples, cattle purchases in Baker County, and local farming developments including seedings, new water supply needs, and a push for warm underwear at the Peoples Warehouse.
