I wanted to share a few pics from Rocky Thacker, Station Superintendent at the OSU Southwest Research and Extension Center near Altus, OK. These pictures were taken on April 8 and clearly show the extent of the current drought’s damage to the southwest Oklahoma wheat crop.
About Me
Amanda De Oliveira Silva
I have served as an Assistant Professor and Small Grains Extension Specialist at Oklahoma State University since August 2019. I believe that close interaction with producers is vital to understand their production strategies and to establish realistic research goals. My program focuses on developing science-based information to improve the agronomic and economic viability of small grains production in Oklahoma and in the Southern Great Plains.
