Washington Grain Commission The Washington Grain Commission enhances the profitability of Washington wheat and barley growers

https://linktr.ee/WashingtonGrainCommission

Over the Cascade Mountains and heading east and south, a visitor discovers a unique beauty – drier and cultivated with sustainable farm practices. Although wheat farming in Eastern Washington started in earnest in the 1880’s, it wasn’t until 1958 the state’s farmers saw the need for individuals to pool their resources to support the industry. That year, farmers created the Washington Wheat Commiss

ion and voted to pay an assessment on each bushel of wheat produced in Eastern Washington. On July 27, 2009, the Washington Wheat Commission merged with the Washington Barley Commission (established in 1985) to form the Washington Grain Commission. Today, through marketing, research, education and grower services, the Washington Grain Commission, under the direction of an eleven-member board, supports the work of over 3,000 farms in Washington State – nearly all of which are family-owned and operated.

Wheat research is about delivering real-world results—varieties that work for growers, millers, bakers, and export markets, while improving environmental sustainability, economics, and nutrition through a truly holistic approach.

Eastern Washington farming is shaped by one of the world’s most unique climates. The region’s geography creates diverse microclimates, influencing how and where rain falls, making every field and every season a little different. 🌦️

Our team had a wonderful (windy) time at Douglas County Field Day this week. We heard research updates, a falling numbers report, and enjoyed lunch with WGC Commissioner Ben Adams and his family.

Yesterday we spent the day at Lind Field Day, where our team enjoyed seeing current wheat trials up close and hearing directly from the researchers behind them. So much incredible work goes into Washington wheat!
