Oklahoma wheat growth and development was delayed mainly due to drought, although cold temperatures also factor into it. Forage amounts were also down this year, so producers did not get to graze this fall. Much of Oklahoma’s wheat, especially that intended for forage, was seeded late and was dusted in, due to extreme drought.
