Mark Ploger Quotations

The plants are in a weakened state. Moisture is the key. We need rain.

If we don't get rain in the next two weeks, we'll see some long term affects on the wheat.

We need rain now. That's the bottom line. We need that moisture.

Wheat is resilient. The wheat plant does everything it can to survive. It hangs on to every minute drop. Wheat is a survivor.

Wheat is a hardy plant but it can't survive everything. It's not a very good situation.

We've probably cut our yield in half already. It just doesn't look real appealing right now.

A cold snap would be our biggest detriment right now.

It makes a bad situation. We're warming up too fast.

It takes a good five-day period of nighttime temperatures staying above freezing for wheat to come out of dormancy.
