Heavy snow and freezing temperatures in mid-May flattened and lodged winter wheat across Colorado, western Kansas and parts of Nebraska. New-crop wheat futures climbed as much as 20 cents per bushel after the storm.
Crop tours also pointed to lower yields.
Lodging and crop damage reduce expected 2017/18 wheat production and ending stocks, supporting prices above the projected $4.30 per bushel. Lodging also raises disease risk, adding further yield uncertainty.
