National Wheat Foundation Project Manager Anne Osborne said the National Wheat Yield contest is a learning opportunity. “If these guys can do it, you can do it, too,” said Osborne. “We can grow high-yielding, high-quality profitable wheat, and keep the wheat in the rotation. It does really good things for the rest of your farm. You’re breaking up the cycle from soybean cyst nematode or some of those other pests and spread out the workload.” In addition to bushels, this contest examines the wheat for quality. The top-quality winners will be announced in mid-January. Listen to the interview.
