The start of the Kansas wheat harvest may be just days away.

The combines usually roll first across wheat fields around Kiowa
in Barber County in the southern part of the state.

At the OK Co-op Grain Co. elevator in Kiowa, assistant manager
Dennis Carroll said Monday that the start of harvest in his area
may begin as soon as the latter part of this week.

Carroll says farmers just need to wait for the wheat to be ready
to cut.

He says some of the wheat there is pretty good, although not
excellent. He expects the crop is probably going to be average this
season.
