Sign up today for Wheat tourThe Nebraska Wheat Growers Association is sponsoring the 2006 Wheat Industry Tour, occurring on June 15 and 16. The objective of the Wheat Industry Tour is to educate all aspects of the industry on the end-uses of Wheat and market demand for their products. "In today's marketplace, there is an ever increasing need to view production from a consumer's point-of-view. Specifically, participants will be exposed to information on milling procedures, standards of baking quality and varietal development," stated Mike Sullivan, President of the NWGA. The tour will begin in Lincoln, NE on June 15, when a maximum of 15 participants will travel to Manhattan, KS to tour facilities including the International Grains Program (IGP), American Institute of Baking and the USDA Grain Marketing and Research Center. After returning to Lincoln on June 16, the group will tour both the Wheat research lab and the Wheat breeding facilities at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. The NWGA will provide transportation to and from Manhattan, lodging at the Holiday Inn for the evening of June 15, and meals while on tour. If you are interested in participating in the 2006 Wheat Industry Tour, please contact Michelle at 308-284-6823 for additional information. There is limited space available, so please make your reservations today. Participants do not need to be a member of the Wheat association to attend.
