Combines are rolling in Kansas, where wheat harvest is officially underway. However, it comes with challenges.
While Kansas has not gotten as much rain as states like Oklahoma and Texas, Kansas Wheat CEO Justin Gilpin says that he has heard of some delays, like his friend Martin, who farms near Garden Plain, just 20 miles west of Wichita.
As far as this year’s crop, he says there will be a lot of variability.
