North Dakota Wheat Receives Good Reviews

North Dakota’s winter wheat crop is getting strong reviews. “There are some really good reports of early winter wheat fields in southern North Dakota; good quality, nice protein, and yield is quite high,” said Westbred Technical Product Manager Justin Berg. Berg remains encouraged about the spring wheat crop’s potential. “The crop had a lot of moisture this year and a lot of disease pressure, so we’ve seen some head scab and bacterial leaf streak, some stripe rust on the flag leaf, but overall, the plant looks good.”
