Think About Selling Part of Your Wheat This Harvest Season- So Says Dr. Kim Anderson
Fri, 13 May 2011 6:57:32 CDT
Oklahoma State University's Kim Anderson tells Austin Moore on this week's SUNUP program that this year farmers need to consider selling at least some of their wheat at harvest time, with prices more than double that of one year ago.
Anderson also talks about the first wheat harvest reports of the 2011 season- and he believes that the harvest report from Grandfield shows how remarkable a crop wheat really is- making 12 to 15 bushels per acre on virtually no moisture. You can watch Austin and Kim talk about the USDA reports of earlier this week and more on Saturday morning's SUNUP- or you can listen to their conversation now by clicking on the LISTEN BAR below.
