KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) – Emergency crews treated nearly two dozen people after a carbon monoxide scare Friday morning. Four of those people were taken to hospitals.

The Kansas City Fire Department responded to a call about an unconscious person at a business located near NE Underground Drive near Missouri 210 Highway. The call came in around 8:30 a.m.

Emergency crews evacuated the business. They also began monitoring the air quality inside the area.

They cleared the scene shortly before 11 a.m. and people were allowed to go back to work inside the cave.

WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) — Severe weather and humidity are holding back the wheat harvest in Kansas and adding to historically low yields.

Justin Gilpin, the chief executive officer of the Kansas Wheat Commission said Thursday that nearly 20% of the acres planted won’t be harvested this year because of poor crop conditions.

“It’s been a challenging year for Kansas wheat farmers from production because of weather,” Gilpin said. “And ironically, the dry weather’s what caused the low, low estimates and low yields, and now, we’re seeing some crop losses because of too much rain and high humidity.”

He said some recent crop losses are piling on top of what was going to be one of the lowest productions Kansas has seen since the 1960s.

But some farmers have had more luck than others, Gilpin said.

While some are collecting yields of 10 to 15 bushels per acre, others are getting 50 per acre, depending on when the rain hits and how the wheat varieties respond.

Gilpin said harvest has been slow because farmers have had to pause for the weather multiple times.

Despite a 40% decrease in production compared to last year, Kansas remains the largest wheat producer in the United States, which Gilpin said, is being watched by people across the globe.

“A lot of eyes, you know, around the United States but also around the world are always eager to see how the bushels are going to come in from our Kansas farms because of the impact that we have,” he said.
