Share Tweet Email

K-State Research & Extension will be holding a Wheat Variety Development & Management Field Day on Thursday, June 12 to showcase the latest research advancing Kansas wheat production into the future. Come see the experimental wheat plots and discuss with K-State researchers Allan Fritz, Romulo Lollato, and Kelsey Onofre about some of the most pressing wheat research questions they're tackling. Some of these topics will include:

  • Tailoring optimal nitrogen management by variety.
  • Assessing head scab and wheat streak mosaic tolerance and performance by variety.
  • Tracking rust distribution risk using predictive models.
  • Incorporating value-added traits into new wheat variety releases.

The program will take place at the North Central Kansas Experiment Farm's Belleville Unit on US-36, 1 mile. W of Belleville. Presentations will kick off at 9 AM with refreshments and will be followed by lunch.

For more information, please contact Luke Byers, River Valley Extension District Agriculture & Natural Resources Agent, at 785-632-5335 or by email at lsbyers@ksu.edu.
