Scott Dickie with Beck’s covers parts of Nebraska, Kansas and Missouri. “We have some of our locations have come out in the low 200-to-230-bushel range in parts of Northeast Kansas. We have some garden spots in the geography, but the biggest theme for west and south of the area I cover in Kansas and Nebraska is extreme drought.”
He tells Brownfield persistent dryness dramatically impacted pollination.
