Good news, everyone. The wheat harvest is beginning or something. From the Enid News and Eagle:
The wheat harvest has begun in Oklahoma with farmers and officials optimistic about the 2012 crop after drought ravaged production in 2011.
“Combines are rolling all across southwest Oklahoma ... as far north as I-40,” said Debbie Wedel, executive secretary for Oklahoma Wheat Commission.
“So far this year, it looks really good,” Wedel said.
Farmer David Gammill of Chattanooga said he began cutting on his 1,300 acre farm on Tuesday and is averaging 30 to 40 bushels per acre.
