Wheat Returns to Prominence in Tennessee Agriculture
United Press international reports Tennessee researchers say wheat may regain importance as profitability rises with yields around 32 bushels per acre. Gambill notes steady prices and lower labor needs, with wheat used alongside soybeans in West Tennessee for higher yields when fertilized and well managed. Beef cattle breeders show gains from seven years of improvement programs, with calves weaned rising from 333 to 420 and average daily gain increasing from 1.58 to 1.79 pounds. Weed control and herbicide use boost soybean yields, while dairy herds benefit from weed management and good seedbeds, improving income per cow.
