Abstract
Sedgwick and Sumner County are two of the highest producing wheat counties in Kansas. This report summarizes the results of winter wheat variety tests for 2022- 2023 in four locations. The year 2023 was the second consecutive growing season with drought in Kansas that caused significant impacts on the wheat crop. Precipitation from sowing to harvest was minimal. A number of wheat acres in the state were terminated before harvest because of their poor potential. Yields in the four trial locations were below average.
