wheat crop conditions
I'm experiencing browning up in some of my wheat fields and its common place all over the area.
Yellowing and purpling of leaves seems to be tying up the phosphorus in the plant. We need rain to get things in there proper growth appearance. Its most prevalent on the tile drains.
Never seen this before, drought taking hold I guess.
Did get a nice shower this morning......

My winter wheat is looking great. No complaints here, things are going more or less "normal."
