New Wheat Standards for This Year’s Crop
Isa bella County agriculture agent Louie Webb says growers will use new wheat standards beginning June 1 to reduce foreign material and dockage. The changes set maximum total defects for numerical grades, drop moisture as a factor in sample grades, lower moisture for tough wheat to 13.5 percent, and introduce new test weights. Special descriptive grades such as tough, smutty, garlic, weevily, treated, and heavy wheat will give buyers and sellers more information.
