Oklahoma wheat harvest continued to move forward in Southwest and Central Oklahoma over the weekend, but rains in parts of Southwest Oklahoma and Northern Oklahoma that were received at the time of this report will delay harvest today most likely in those regions the next couple days. More rains are predicted in all regions of the wheat belt over the next few days. Wheat taken in at locations in Southwest, South Central and Central Oklahoma, have had favorable test weights, and yields reported at this time. Protein ranges are varying all over the board, but most locations are reporting an 11.0 to 11.2% average. Early reports of wheat being harvested in Northern, Oklahoma are also showing promising yields with decent test weights.
