Sights like this were all too familiar in this 2019 wheat harvest in the Newsgram reading area. After record-setting rainfalls, fields were wet beyond words. One farmer reported pulling his custom-harvester crew out three times in one field on a certain day. A Caterpillar or dozer type vehicle was required to get vehicles out of that same field twice the same day. That was the story all over the area this harvest. It was time-consuming and costly as many pieces of equipment were damaged as farmers worked to get the buried vehicles out of the soggy ground.
