It’s wheat harvest time in Geary County.

Geary Grain Elevator owner Joe Hund said Tuesday a few loads have been cut.

“I think we’ve probably got 60 to 61 pound test weight and most of the wheat’s been around that 12 to 13 moisture so that’s roughly number one wheat.”

As far as being able to get into the fields to cut the wheat, Hund noted the ground has dried tremendously during the last week. “We were so wet a week ago. 95 degrees changes things in a hurry. So they’re doing alright.”

Hund indicated Tuesday he expects it will be about two more days before the harvest is in full swing, weather permitting.
