Eastern North Dakota’s small grains harvest is ahead of the rest of the state. “In the eastern third of the state, we’re probably 40 percent done with small grains,” said Kevin Karel, vice president of operations, The Arthur Companies. “I think most of the early wheat is done and we’re just waiting on some late-planted wheat now.” Karel said the protein levels are a little bit below average, but above-average yields should make up for that. “The milling quality looks fantastic.”
