Drought pushing many Nebraska wheat farmers to abandon their wheat
Very dry conditions throughout the winter and several sudden freezes damaged quite a few wheat fields earlier this year. The National Agricultural Statistics Service predicted this month that 580,000 acres will be harvested. That’s about 225,000 acres lower than last year’s harvest. Last year, 85% of wheat acres were harvested, but only 64% is expected to be harvested in 2026.
