          Ive seen lots of fields already cut, it seems to get earlier every year.

            It will do, but hopefully we had a nice spring to get the berry going and formed before it dry off, but also farmers used to get a premium for early milling wheats, so they cut it early when it's not quite ripe then dry it to 15%
