Week ending 06/24/10 As was expected fescue cutting has reached its peak in the past week and is now on the downhill side in all the major cutting areas of the state. Several spots saw some significant seed loss from various pop up storms and heavy winds before farmers could manage to get seed cut. Seed yields have been extremely variable from field to field. Some locations reported a very noticeable decrease in number of combines running and the acreage cut due in part to low seed prices. Some stations plan to call it a season once through the upcoming weekend others will stay open to pick up the last few lbs of seed cut, but after the weekend the 2010 harvest season will more or less be complete. Prices are reported as steady with last week. Prices are reported as steady with last week.. (Dry: Moisture 12-14% - Wet: Moisture greater than 14%) (Prices per lb.)
