State Winter Wheat Could be New Record Low
Nebraska Ag Connection - 01/15/2018
Winter wheat seeded area for 2018 is estimated at 1.03 million acres, down from last year's seeded area of 1.12 million acres, according to the USDA's National Agricultural Statistics Service. If realized this would be a new record low, below the 1.12 million
acres planted for harvest in 2017.
U.S. winter wheat planted area for harvest in 2018 is estimated at 32.6 million acres, down less than 1 percent from 2017 and down 10 percent from 2016. This represents the second lowest United States acreage on record. Seedings, which began in early
September, remained behind the 5-year average seeding pace through early November when seeding was mostly complete.
