A new publication has just been issued by Montana State University that will help farmers in making decisions about fertility related to increasing the protein content of their wheat crop. The publication, titled Practices to Increase Wheat Grain Protein can be downloaded for free HERE.
Some simple strategies include selecting varieties that are known to produce higher protein wheat but a majority of the focus of this bulletin is on nitrogen management and timing and what effects that can potentially have on protein levels. This publication was produced by Clain Jones, Extension Soil Fertility Specialist and Kathrin Olson-Rutz, a research associate with the department of land resources and environmental sciences.
More information related to soil fertility and proper fertilzation techniques can be found at Clain Jones' web site which can be found HERE.
