U S Department of Agriculture specialists note wheat prices in seven Midwestern states around 82 cents a bushel and argue wheat should reclaim a larger role in poultry rations. Wheat and corn are about equal in value for poultry feed, with wheat feeding better when used alone and best results seen when both grains are combined. A scratch mix recommends 11 pounds cracked corn to 1 pound wheat and 1 pound oats. Local farmers in Michigan already substitute wheat for other feeds as market conditions favor livestock use over selling wheat.
