Wheat Leader Calls for Higher Wheat Checkoff in Kansas
Kansas wheat growers head into a two year term led by Bob Paris as president of the Kansas Association of Wheat Growers. Paris argues for increasing the checkoff from four tenths of a cent to one cent per bushel to fund promotion and research at the Kansas Wheat Commission, noting reduced federal support and shrinking wheat acreage. He compares industry investment to Caterpillar and DuPont and urges farmers and lawmakers to boost funding for development and innovation.
