In many ways, the annual Prairie Grains Conference is the kickoff to the winter farm show season. Westbred Technical Product Manager Justin Berg says the show is a good way to assess farmer attitude going into 2024. The buying season has been slow to start, but Berg remains optimistic about wheat acres. “We had an interesting fall with the snow that we got in October and I think a lot more fertilizer was put down than was expected,” said Berg. “I think that’s good for the wheat and there is a lot of pre-buys on chemical going on right now so as long as we get that commodity price back up, we’ll still see a good share of wheat acres.”
