US Farmers Concerned about Winter Wheat Crops

The planting for hard red winter wheat in the United States is already halfway completed. But experts say next year’s crop is already being limited by too little water in the middle of the country.
Planting plans may be cut back in the U.S. even with historically high prices for wheat crops at this time of year. The high prices are a result of rising worldwide demand and limited wheat supplies. And the U.S. is among the top five wheat exporters worldwide.
In the states of Kansas and Oklahoma, the drought threatens crops already in the ground from developing properly. It also discourages farmers from trying to plant more.
