Wheat Yields

As expected in a drought year, yields are highly variable depending on soil type, previous crop, stray showers, etc.  I have started to get some yield information in and wanted to pass it along.  Art seems to be having a good year overall, Jackpot has been a little more variable but some exceptional yields have been reported.

In Sumner county one grower reported yields from 16 to 60. The grower was very pleased with Jackpot making 61.5 bu acre dryland. Another grower reported Jackpot at 72 under Irrigation and 54 bu/acre dryland.

In Cowley county, CJ planted late after cotton made 44 bu/acre dryland.

In Sedgwick county, Art was 72 bu/acre under Irrigation and 50.3 dryland

In Harvey County a field of PostRock made 49 dryland

In McPherson County a grower reported Art doing well with yields in the mid 40's. 

An Irrigated field of Art in Reno County looks like it could make 100 bu/acre, tune back in for an update.
