It’s been a year of surprises for Oklahoma wheat—late rains, shattered heads, and still some solid yields.
Oklahoma wheat growers have faced a wild ride this season—droughts, floods, wind, and more. In this episode, Dr. Amanda Silva from OSU Extension joins the Red Dirt Agronomy crew to unpack the 2025 wheat harvest and the unexpected resilience of this year’s crop.
We hear from Dr. Josh Lofton and Dr. Brian Arnall as they reflect on the evolution of modern wheat management and share insights from statewide variety trials, nitrogen studies, and the ever-challenging Oklahoma climate.
You’ll also get an exclusive preview of an upcoming hands-on sorghum event in Woods County on July 29, offering growers and consultants a chance to get dirty and dive deep into forage quality, nitrate testing, and in-field crop assessments.
Whether you’re scouting sorghum or pondering wheat seeding rates, there’s something for everyone in this packed episode.
