Farmers Wrapping Up Winter Wheat Seeding

"There's a little bit more interest this year," he said. "Not like it used to be, but there's the odd guy sticking some in here and there. Overall, I think the acres will be up somewhat but not a big amount. I think with fall rye, I think the acres are going to be really scaled back. COVID has really hit that market hard. Even for old crop from last year there's very little movement."
 
Martin says 2020 yields were a bit disappointing for both crops.
