Wheat People: The Wheat Game

Here are your results:

1999 was terrible. Heavy rains caused some wheat to fall to the ground, where combines couldn't pick it up. Diseases thrived in the cool, damp weather.

Karl did well, despite the poor weather.

You harvested 57 bushels per acre, 11 bushels above the state average! Using herbicide reduced your profits, but it probably saved your wheat crop.
