Many Kansas farmers are delighted with the fall harvest they're seeing, but in Western Kansas it has created some storage problems. Many grain elevators are storing the recently cut corn on the ground because the elevators are still full of wheat.

Pratt County is one location where piles of corn on the ground continue to grow. But other parts of the state saw this year's wheat crop decimated by a late-Spring freeze.

There are about 250,000 bushels of corn on the ground at the Iuka grain elevator, with thousands more bushels waiting to be brought in. Tarps will protect it from the rain and fans help draw off moisture, as well.

State agriculture officials are predicting a Kansas corn harvest of 493,000,000 bushels. That's 43 percent higher than last year.

The milo or sorghum harvest is estimated to be 205,000,000 bushels, which is 42 percent higher than last year.

Usually, prices drop when there is an abundance of product, but not so this year. Instead, prices are at record highs because so much grain is being used for ethanol production.
