Winter wheat promises with proper care in North Dakota
An agricultural bulletin advises that winter wheat can succeed in North Dakota only with protective nursing and proper timing. Grow a small trial area of ten acres max, sow midsummer, use stubble or sheltering plants, and employ a single disc drill for deeper seeding. Turkey Red recommended. Canadian seed no better. Seed access is tight as farmers have sold much to seed houses.
