Federation wheat favored for irrigation in Idaho tests

Federation, an Australian wheat variety released by the U S Department of Agriculture in 1915, shows higher yield under irrigation than Dicklow at the Aberdeen Idaho sub station. Over three years Federation out produced Dicklow by 54 percent per acre and performs better for milling and bread making. It saw success last season in Oregon and will be tried on irrigated farms in southern Idaho this year.
