E241: Deep Dive with National Wheat Yield Contest Winners

The winners of the National Wheat Yield Contest, hosted by the National Wheat Foundation, represent some of the most progressive and thoughtful wheat growers from across the country. This week, DTN Crops Editor Jason Jenkins takes the reins to lead us through a conversation with national winners Steve VanGrunsven, a grower/agronomist in Forest Grove, Oregon and Travis Messer, the grower/agronomist at Beaver Creek Ranch in Richardton, ND. These two champions dig into the benefits they’ve seen in participating in the annual contest, and also share about the finer details of their management practices, technology and seed selection, quantity versus quality, and how they think about wheat in their broader rotations.This special edition DTN Field Post podcast is brought to you by the National Wheat Foundation in partnership with BAYER Westbred.
