Cooperation Seen Key to Kansas Atypical Wheat Pricing
An Emporia panel of farmers grain elevator operators and millers urged collaboration to prevent large price discounts on Arkan and related atypical wheats. With 33 percent of fall planted Kansas wheat in Arkan and cousins, potential discounts could reach 40 million for farmers if loads are misclassified as soft wheat. Experts discussed visual kernel inspection, a hardness tester, and marketing strategies to route atypical wheat to export or cattle feed to minimize losses.

President Reagan signals a shift in U.S. policy by pursuing updated nuclear forces beyond SALT II. Destroying two Poseidon submarines clears the way for a new Trident while insisting on radical Soviet concessions could end the treaty by year’s end. The move keeps the 1,200 missile cap through 1986 with no immediate dismantling required.
