Wheat harvest half done in much of Nebraska
A lot of progress was made for wheat harvest in Nebraska before mid-July. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) reported that harvest was half done in the state. This past fall, producers planted 920,000 acres of wheat, though only 850,000 are expected to be harvested. The USDA predicts Nebraska’s wheat crop production to reach 40.8 million bushels, which is a 26% decrease from the 2019 crop.
