Texas Crop and Weather Report – Sept. 13, 2022

Texas peanut producers experienced tough growing conditions in 2022, according to Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service experts.

Yields were expected to be below average, but prices were stronger this season. Peanuts were impacted by drought and heat much like most crops across the state, said Emi Kimura, Ph.D., AgriLife Extension state peanut specialist, Vernon.
