An odd trend in wheat country: Not much wheat
DES MOINES, Iowa An odd thing has happened in
wheat country a lot of farmers arent planting wheat.
Thanks to a global grain glut that has caused prices and
profits to plunge, this year farmers planted the fewest acres
of wheat since the U.S. Department of Agriculture began
keeping records nearly a century ago.
Instead of planting the crop that gave the wheat belt its
identity, many farmers are opting this year for crops that
might be less iconic but are suddenly in demand, such as
chickpeas and lentils, used in hummus and healthy snacks.
People have gone crazy with chickpeas. Its unbeliev-

farms 350 acres (142 hectares) south of Spokane in eastern
Washington, where wheats reign as the king crop has been
challenged.
American farmers still plant wheat over a vast landscape
that stretches from the southern Plains of Oklahoma and
Texas north through Kansas, Nebraska and the Dakotas as
well as dry regions of Washington and Oregon. However,
this years crop of 45.7 million acres (18.49 million
hectares) is the smallest since 1919.
North Dakota harvested wheat acres are down 15 percent,
Montana 11 percent and Nebraska 23 percent, to the states
lowest winter wheat acres on record.
Fewer farmers planted wheat after a 2016 crop that was the
