Best Varieties of Grain Told by University Agronomists
Experiments at the University of Nebraska identify Cheyenne, Nebred, and Turkey for wheat varieties, Lincoln brome grass for eastern Nebraska, and Rosen rye. Cheyenne offers Hessian fly tolerance and good baking quality. Nebred is winter hardy and rust resistant but flies harm it. Lincoln brome grass shows early growth and high forage yield. Rosen is the most satisfactory winter rye.

Beet Tops as Livestock Feed Boosts Farm Economics
A farm feeding study shows beet tops vary in value by harvest care. Well cured tops from a ton of beets replace 46 pounds of corn and 150 pounds of alfalfa hay, while field market tops fetch about 70 cents per ton, suggesting a potential gain of about $1.42 per ton when properly harvested. Beet top silage offers higher nutrient preservation and about 111 percent the value of corn silage, with top silage from a ton of beets worth roughly $2.06 when alfalfa is $16 per ton.
