Prolonged droughts in West, southern Plains spark worries for 2022 crops (Agri-Pulse) 

April 27, 2022


Agri-Pulse published an article on how many farmers across the West and Southern Plains worry they can’t produce good crops this year because of an abnormally dry winter and little prospect for moisture in coming weeks. Senior research fellow Joseph Glauber said, “You are going to see from now on out for the next several months, a lot of volatility in the markets because of the drought.” However, he stated that it’s too early to write off the winter wheat crops in the southern Plains because of the impact some timely rains could have.
