Tips for High Quality Wheat Seed 8-2009
Try to thresh grain completely at harvest. We can clean grain, but cannot thresh grain of "white caps".
Clean seed storage thoroughly before loading. (bin, truck or trailer)
We recommend your place an insect strip one foot above load of wheat to kill meal moths which produce larva in the grain. available at Wal-mart and farm stores for about $6.00.
Avoid roof leaks during storage. Many loads come in spoiled to some degree.
For your own safety as well as our, please install "inside" as well as "outside" ladders in your high sided trucks and trailers, as we must sweep them out.
Absolutely no treaded seed should remain in the truck, wagon, auger, or auger hopper of incoming loads. Contaminated seed will foul our cleaning facility. A clean-up surcharge will be added to any inadvertent treated seed dumped in our facility.
Please consider removing augers from gravity wagons for more efficient unloading. Many customers already do this and it is appreciated. Obviously this saves fuel and labor costs in the unloading phase of seed conditioning.
When treating wheat seed the wheat swells in volume about 10%. Please keep this in mind when loading your truck or trailer. With good quality wheat with little cleanout, it can be nearly impossible to get the load back onto the truck or trailer from whence it came.
These few hints will greatly improve the quality of your seed and will make fall conditioning season run smoothly.
We will have Dividend Extreme seed applied fungicide available as a custom application again this fall.
Recommended wheat verities fro 2009 are Art and Post Rock from AgriPro, Sante Fe and Armour from Westbred/AGSECO and Overland and 2137 from NU and K-State respectively. More info is available on our web site in our other literature.
Thank you for your past support and business, we look forward to serving you this fall.
