HUSA May 20 2026 - Wheat Yields in Texas

Checking in with our co-host David Woodruff, looks like we have Eric Wolgemuth, Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania custom harvester.   Let's check in.    "Well, we got a couple combines in Texas trying to finish up, and we got a combine in Oklahoma, just got started, and we're still trying to finish planting corn in Pennsylvania. So, what's it like in Texas? I've seen better, but we did have something to do down there, fortunately. It wasn't all very, I mean, it was, some was okay, but it's pretty tough down there."    How are things in Oklahoma?    "Kind of the same way. I mean, we're like, we just got done in Okarche last night, and the wheat's better than further west, and it seems like the further west you get, the worse it gets, and more gets disastered out the further west you go. I actually cut some wheat that made 40 bushel yesterday."   Whoa.    "There's going to be a lot of wheat, I think, in the area that's going to be at least a little further west. A lot of it's going to be between 10 and 25. How's the bushel weight looking? Some of it's lighter. Some of it's 55. It just depends on timing and variety, and I'm not sure what all, but once we had a little bit, the wheat weighed 59 or 60, too. And, you know, you go across the road, and it might not be, you know, in the 54 or something. Even irrigated, like we had a little bit of irrigating in Texas, and that actually weighed less than the dry land for whatever reason. I don't know."   Sometimes the drier it is, the better the test weight is.    "And sometimes it gives you protein, too."   Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania, Custom Harvester, Eric Wolgemuth.
