These were seeded to winter wheat this past Fall in normally considered the right period for proper seed germination and plant growth. Winter came early and cold dry ground stopped wheat plant growth. Many fields exhibited very little sign of wheat. It follows then that the extreme cold will severely jeopordize any real wheat production. Harvesting next July will probably be slight. Farmers will need to make some dramatic decisions on those seeded acres. Shall they “cold sweat” it out? Re-work soil and plant oats? Switch to com or soybeans? Other Pennsylvania acres are in the same fix on the wheat situation as well.
