Crowngrain Announces 2018 Preferred Wheat Varieties

June 12, 2018

As you may know, one of the most important decisions growers make is choosing the right variety or varieties to plant each year. Because of the many differences that exist among the varieties, it’s very important to assess what characteristics are most important, especially for the production area. Most growers choose several varieties to plant to help reduce risk as well as improve the chances of success every harvest season.

Crowngrain publishes a list of recommended wheat cultivars annually to assist our partners in this important decision-making process. This activity also helps align local wheat production with our flour milling needs.
