First as usual, a drought update is in order.听 Again, nothing after 8 a.m. this past Tuesday is included.听 Not much has changed with the western half of Kansas mostly out of drought conditions, this area in moderate drought, and the eastern half of the state, especially in the central Flint Hills in extreme and exceptional drought.听 Today鈥檚 topic isn鈥檛 about red or white wine but red or white wheat.听 You may have heard of white wheat but what is it and why should we plant it?
