Welcome to the coverage of the 2011
Small Grain Solutions program

Eight years after the beginning of Small Grain Solutions program, there are both old and new issues on the minds of producers. Technology continues to improve at a rapid rate, but producers are still dealing with Mother Nature and the hand she deals. The SGS tour this year went to Wichita, Kan., Clinton, Okla., and Amarillo, Texas. The producers in Texas were dealing with severe drought conditions, while things further north looked better.

The program during the event was excellent and for those of you that weren’t in attendance, we have written a special section covering the event. High Plains Journal and John Deere are pleased to be able to offer this information to you.
