(4-10-12)The Oklahoma Agricultural Statistics Service estimated this week that over 40 percent of the wheat crop and almost 75 percentof the rye crop were heading out. Virtually all of the canola crop is blooming and corn planting is running ahead of normal.Rains and mild temperatures have pushed crop progress ahead of normal statewide. Rains and the Easter holiday helped reduce receipts at state auction markets this week. Prices under pressure from lower beefand fed cattle prices as well as a bearish futures market. Beef demand was softer but grilling season may see this pick up soon.
