Wheat with low falling numbers may be rejected as farmers bring the crop to the elevator. CHS Northland Grain West operations manager Robert Staehnke says eventually there will be a market for that lower quality wheat. “We’re sampling every load and checking the numbers. We’re going to get as much information up front and let them know the discounts,” says Staehnke. “It may be more beneficial for farmers to bin the crop instead of bringing it in. Higher quality and lower quality wheat doesn’t blend together well.”
