[Fhb-update_cgp] FHB Update from OK, 06/05/13

[FHB Update - Central GP, Hard Winter Wheat]

Wheat is being harvested in southwestern OK. Wheat around Stillwater is
typically at medium dough with very little green leaf tissue left in the
leaves. Stems are still mostly green but also beginning to fade. All of the
wheat I looked at on Monday had 3 plump kernels/mesh. I’m confident that
wheat in Oklahoma is past the window to be infected with Fusarium as even
the wheat in the panhandle is past flowering.
