Durums lead in trials, with Kubanka and Arnautka as top varieties. a Dickinson strain No. 8 may be best locally. Fife types Marquis Powerfife and Glynden show promise.

Wheat varieties and seed recommendations for Southwestern North Dakota
In Southwestern North Dakota Preston or Velvet Chaff wheat should rank below Blue stem for yield and milling quality. Velvet Chaff is bearded. Skepticism remains on winter wheat, though some success nearby offers hope. Recommend Kubanka or Arnautka Durum, Marquis or Power Fife, and urge seed procurement inquiries. Emphasize rust-affected seed and testing after fanning mill. Flax and barley to be discussed next week.
