Extension caught up with growers Chris Kaseberg and Josh Duling, at the Sherman Station branch of Columbia Basin Agricultural Research Center to hear about their experience growing wheat in Eastern Oregon.
According to the Oregon Department of Agriculture, wheat is Oregon's 6th largest agricultural commodity, estimated to bring in over $600 million in 2024. Grown in 30 out of 36 of Oregon's counties, Oregonians predominately grow soft white wheat which is used in flat breads, cakes, pastries, and crackers. 90% of the Oregon's wheat is overseas, predominately to East Asia, per Oregon Agriculture in the Classroom Foundation.
Oregon State Extension provides hands on support to Oregon's wheat farmers through providing up-to-date research and analysis of new and upcoming varieties of wheat, fertilizer efficacy, and farmer safety and well-being.
