Minor Drop in Winter Wheat QualityWASHINGTON - May 6/02 - STAT -- There was a slight decrease in the overall condition of this year's winter wheat crop in the latest crop progress data developed by the USDA. While leaving the percentage of the crop in the good to excellent category unchanged at 36%, the USDA increased the percentage of crop in the very poor rating by one point to 17% and reduced the amount considered fair by one point to 31%. These numbers are well behind last year, when 41% of the crop was rated good toe excellent and 26% was in the very poor to poor category instead of the 33% of the crop sitting in that category this year.
