Kansas Wheat Harvest Wrapping Up

Spring-planted farm crops are also making some progress

The Kansas winter wheat harvest is quickly wrapping up for another year, reports theSan Francisco Chronicle.

The National Agricultural Statistics Service reported Monday that 92% of the wheat in Kansas has now been harvested. That is ahead of the 85% harvested for the five-year average for this late in the season.

Spring-planted farm crops are also making some progress with nearly half of the state's corn now silking. About 38% of soybeans are blooming and about five percent of them are setting pods.
