Plains Grains Says Texas Wheat Harvest One Fourth Complete- and the Oklahoma HRW Crop Now Nine Percent Done
Thu, 10 Jun 2021 21:45:08 EDT
On a weekly basis, Mark Hodges with Plains Grains is releasing his latest Hard Red Winter Wheat Harvest Report. Here is the report released on Thursday evening, June 10, 2021:
The Texas HRW wheat crop is now 25% harvested, those acres are predominately in southern half of the state. Harvested acres remain behind the 5-year average of 40% by this date with progress moving very slowly as rain, heavy overcast skies, below normal temperatures, and high humidity are providing a significant impediment to harvesting a largely mature crop. As noted in last week's report, signs of freeze damage continue to be observed in both Texas and Oklahoma.
Oklahoma, (now 9% complete with harvest) is also significantly behind the 5-year average of 17% harvested by this date, continues on the Oklahoma/Texas border into the southwestern 1/4 of the state and is also experiencing problems getting harvest started due to the same types of weather issues as in Texas.
