Every Friday through the U.S. harvest season (May to October), U.S. Wheat Associates (USW) and its partner organizations compile a Harvest Report. It includes updates on crop quality, harvest progress and crop conditions for hard red winter (HRW), soft red winter (SRW), hard red spring (HRS), soft white (SW) and durum wheat.
The 2021 USW Crop Quality Report provides a detailed look at the 2021 U.S. wheat harvest and includes further information on Wheat Flour Testing Methods.

Harvest of the HRW crop is expected to begin in Texas within the next week or two, with reduced yields expected. The 2022 Hard Red Winter Wheat Tour hosted by the Wheat Quality Council will take place next week, May 16-19; for updates about the crop in Kansas, southern Nebraska and northern Oklahoma, follow #wheattour22 on Twitter.
