North Dakota Mill President Vance Taylor says the quality of the spring wheat coming into the mill is excellent so far. “I think we have 20 percent of the new crop wheat on the belt and it’s performing well. The test weight seems to be up from last year and the falling number situation is better than 2019. Protein is similar to last year, too.” Taylor reminds farmers there is also some work being done at the elevator. “We’re putting in a new scale system and conveyors to further speed up our wheat unloading at the mill,” says Taylor. “We hope to have the first phase of this done in the next few months and then, finish up the second phase in the spring. This should speed up truck unloading by 25 to 30 percent.”
